Dr. Reni Butler speaks with Dr. Anne Marie McCarthy and Dr. Christine Edmonds about their study examining Black–White racial differences in background parenchymal enhancement (BPE) on contrast-enhanced breast MRI. They discuss the finding that black women had higher odds of high BPE independent of breast density, explore potential biologic and environmental drivers, and consider how quantitative BPE assessment could improve breast cancer risk stratification and screening equity.
