Figure. Age-adjusted and final-adjusted estimates for mammography use among white and black women, Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, 1995-2006. Data refer to women who reported having a mammogram within the past 2 years. Final-adjusted estimates were obtained by adjusting the age-adjusted estimates for misclassification using the following formula with race-specific specificity (sp) and sensitivity (se) (white se = .97, sp = .62; black se = .97, sp = .49): (estimated prevalence − 1 + sp) / (se + sp − 1). See formula in Methods. Percentages for 2001, 2003, and 2005 are the averages of the previous and following years. The Healthy People 2010 goal was 70%.
