Screening mammography aims to identify small, node-negative breast cancers when they are still curable while maintaining an acceptable range of false-positive recalls and biopsies. The mammography audit is a powerful tool to help radiologists understand their performance with respect to that goal. This article defines audit terms and describes how to use collected and derived data to perform a mammography audit. Accepted benchmarks are discussed as well as their applicability to radiologists and breast imaging practices in the United States. Special considerations regarding volumes and radiologist characteristics are explored, because these factors may affect audit results.
