Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Women taking part in the National Mammography Screening Program, examined at Södersjukhuset Breast Centre at Södra station in Stockholm and recalled because of suspicion of breast cancer will be invited to participate. A Contrast Enhanced Mammography will be added to the standard of care procedures for investigating a suspicion of breast cancer and blinded from each other 2 radiologists will evaluate either the Contrast Enhanced Mammography or the standard of care examinations. When comparing the potentially extra findings with Contrast Enhanced Mammography will be calculated. Potential side effects together with the patient experience will also be evaluated.
