Longstanding concern exists regarding the potential for women with breast implants to experience delayed detection of breast cancer. Furthermore, survival among cosmetic breast implant patients who subsequently develop breast cancer is a concern. Since 1976, this institution has monitored cancer incidence in a cohort of 3182 women who underwent cosmetic breast augmentation between 1959 and 1981...

The focus of this study was to determine if early detection of mutant p53 accumulation may be an early indicator of tumor aggressiveness and transformation to invasive breast cancer. For this purpose, the p53 content of 100 human breast biopsies classified as ductal carcinoma (DCIS), was evaluated by immunohistochemical method. All specimens were microscopically classified into histologic types...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the benefits and limitations of screening for breast cancer using mammography. METHODS Descriptive design with follow-up was used in the study. Data from breast cancer screening and health insurance claim data were used. The study population consisted of all participants in breast cancer screening from 2009 to 2014. Crude detection rate, p...

There is increasing evidence that molecular detection of micrometastatic breast cancer in the axillary lymph nodes (ALN) of breast cancer patients can improve staging. Molecular analyses of samples obtained from the Minimally Invasive Molecular Staging of Breast Cancer Trial (n = 489 patients) indicate that whereas the majority of molecular markers are informative for the detection of metastati...

The World Health Organization states 'Early detection in order to improve breast cancer outcome and survival remains the cornerstone of breast cancer control' [WHO (World Health Organization) (2017) Breast cancer: prevention and control Available from: http://www.who.int/cancer/detection/breastcancer/en/]. Breast Density Matters UK is a non-profit breast cancer organization. The organization's ...

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancer in the world. Early detection of cancers cause significantly reduce in morbidity rate and treatment costs. Mammography is a known effective diagnosis method of breast cancer. A way for mammography screening behavior identification is women's awareness evaluation for participating in mammography screening programs. Todays, intelligence systems could...

breast cancer is the most common cancer occurring among women. the mortality rate of breast cancer can be reduced by regular breast cancer screening program. this study was carried out to identify the knowledge and practice of women about breast cancer screening in zahedan, southeast of iran. in this cross- sectional study, 384 women were selected as an improbability sample of women referring t...

background: breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women. breast cancer type 1 susceptibility gene (brca1) is a tumor suppressor gene, involved in dna damage repair and in 81% of the breast-ovarian cancer families were due to brca1. in some clinically investigated genes, the intragenic marker polymorphism is important and the screening of such mutations is faster by using short tandem r...
