The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommended that women who are not at risk for breast cancer wait to have yearly screening mammograms until age 50, as opposed to the previous recommendation of age 40, because
A) breast tissue is more sensitive to radiation damage before menopause than after.
B) the cost of the screening is not covered by insurance until after a woman reaches menopause.
C) most forms of breast cancer do not develop until later in life.
D) the method of screening is more accurate in older women than younger.
E) delaying the screening ensures that younger, more at-risk women, are able to schedule the preventive tests.
