Brief Summary
This study evaluate diagnostic accuracy of dynamic infrared thermography compared to mammography (reference test) in breast cancer diagnostics. Women aged 50-70 years, selected for assessment after mammography screening were invited to dynamic infrared thermography before clinical mammography and further examination.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Diagnostic accuracy of Thermography compared with Mammography and breast biopsy.
Can thermography distinguish benign from malign tumours in breast cancer diagnostics. The gold standard is breast biopsy pathology. The outcome is measured as number of subjects with pathological diagnosis of cancer.
Baseline
Study Arms (1)
Thermography and mammography
OTHERAll participants will be examined with 1. Dynamic infrared thermography (FLIR ThermaCAM P-65) 2. Mammography, clinical examination and if necessary breast tissue biopsy to diagnose breast cancer.
Interventions
Women recalled for assessment after positive screening mammography were offered dynamic infrared thermography before clinical mammography and further tests.

- attending the Norwegian Breast Screening Program,
- recalled for assessment after positive mammography screening
You may not qualify if:
- not attending the Norwegian Breast Screening Program,
