In order to correctly perceive and interpret mammogram images, assessment and categorization skills have to be taught in order for the reader to detect early breast cancer. Based on the detected finding, a clear recommendation is given by the final assessment category. The sensitivity of mammography is influenced by individual patient-dependent parameters (breast density, tumor growth pattern), the acquisition of the mammograms (technician), the technical quality of the image, and the experience of the reader.
