| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
150 patients with breast cancer and 100 patients with non-breast cancer were included in this study. Regarding the density of breast tissue, the mean CT attenuation numbers were not significantly different between them. However, the breast density after the surgery was only obtained for the patients with breast cancer because precontrast CT was conducted as preoperative examination. Then the breast density may have been affected by the postoperative hormonal therapy.
The occupation of breast tissue in the breast was difficult to measure because the CT scanning was performed in the supine position that made it difficult to extract the breast owing to the various breast positions.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
乳癌患者と非乳癌患者において、乳腺CT値に特に有意差は認められなかった。ただし、乳癌患者に対する術後ホルモン療法の乳腺濃度に対する影響を完全には排除できなかった。乳腺組織自体の密度（濃度）が乳癌のリスクになっているという結果は得られなかった。マンモグラフィで行われている乳房に占める乳腺組織の体積比がパラメータとして、重要かもしれないが、CTを用いてその全スライスから体積比を求めることは、撮像ポジションを考えると難しい。簡便な計測法の検討が必要と考えられた。
