Myth #3: MRI is better than mammography
Sunday, October 4, 2009 at 20:51 FALSE. What do we really want from MRI or mammography? To save lives. Unfortunately, MRI has not been shown to do that.
MRI does not work better than mammography—it just works differently. Evidence does exist that mammography may save lives. Even though MRI does find more cancer than mammography, there is no evidence that doing so saves lives.
