The relationship between mammographic parenchymal patterns and known risk factors for breast cancer was studied in 5319 consecutive women presenting for breast screening. Using a multivariate analysis, correlations were found in pre-menopausal women between breast size, weight, age at first pregnancy, history of biopsy and history of cyclical breast pain and parenchymal pattern. In post-menopausal women the parenchymal pattern correlates with breast size, weight, weight change, age at first pregnancy, a history of biopsy and a history of breast feeding. The DY pattern correlated with age, breast size, weight, history of biopsy and menopausal status. When pre-menopausal women were considered separately the DY pattern correlated only with weight and breast size.
