Studying the association between longitudinal mammographic density measurements and breast cancer risk: a joint modelling approach

Abstract Background Researchers have suggested that longitudinal trajectories of mammographic breast density (MD) can be used to understand changes in breast cancer (BC) risk over a woman’s lifetime. Some have suggested, based on biological arguments, that the cumulative trajectory of MD encapsulate...
