Abstract
|
|
|
|
Although mammography is the only proven screening modality that decreases breast cancer mortality, women with an elevated risk for breast cancer may benefit from more intensive surveillance or riskreduction strategies. For these women, supplemental screening with MRI or ultrasound increases cancer detection. A personalized risk assessment will help provide individual screening protocols according to patient risk. Over the last two decades, various mathematical models have been designed and validated to assess breast cancer risk based on family history and other risk factors. This review examines some of the most commonly used models and discusses their advantages, limitations, and other details.
