Mammography, Early Detection Biomarkers, Risk Assessment, and Imaging Technologies, MERIT Study
This study collects mammogram images, blood samples, and clinical information from women undergoing routine screening mammograms. Creating a bank of blood samples and a database of clinical and risk information may be used in future research related to breast cancer, other cancers, and women's health.
Comparison of Synthetic Mammography Versus Full-Field Digital Mammography in Image Interpretation and Performance Metrics
This study compares synthetic mammography to full-field digital mammography in image interpretation and performance metrics. Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) has previously been found to be superior in performance to standard digital mammography in both screening and diagnostic settings for the early detection and improved diagnosis of breast cancers. DBT in …
Hypofractionated Postoperative Regional Nodal Irradiation for Patients With Intermediate-risk Breast Cancer
The role of postoperative regional nodal irradiation (RNI) for T1-2N1 intermediate-risk breast cancer is controversial, and there is a lack of class I evidence of a survival benefit from RNI. A number of retrospective studies of breast cancer patient been undertaken to risk stratify, analyse site of recurrence and assess …
Integrating Molecular Pathology, Radiology, and Genetics to Improve Breast Cancer Risk
The purpose of this research is to better understand how benign breast diseases might lead to breast cancer, focusing on genetic factors and including a diverse range of participants to improve future diagnosis and treatment.
From Exclusion to Inclusion: Analysing Follow-up Discontinuity in Breast Cancer
The goal of this observational study is to determine the proportion of patients who are lost-to-follow-up at five years, identify factors associated with loss of follow-up , and explore patient-reported barriers to follow-up in a public sector cancer care setting. The main question it aims to answer is : Do …
Impact of Dietary Inflammatory Potential on Breast Cancer Risk
This study evaluates the association of dietary inflammatory potential with breast cancer risk. Information collected in this study may help doctors to identify modifiable risk factors, screen high risk patients early, improve prevention strategies, and provide timely intervention for early therapeutic management as needed.
Mobile Health Patient Navigation for the Improvement of Screening and the Early Detection of Breast Cancer in Women Accessing Primary Care Clinics in Kenya
This clinical trial develops and studies how well mobile health (m-Health) patient navigation (PN) strategies work to improve screening and the early detection of breast cancer in women accessing primary care clinics in Kenya. Although highly curable, breast cancer kills thousands of women in developing countries yearly. Mammography (MMG) is …
Women Informed to Screen Depending on Measures of Risk (Wisdom Study)
Most physicians still use a one-size-fits-all approach to breast screening in which all women, regardless of their personal history, family history or genetics (except BRCA carriers) are recommended to have annual mammograms starting at age 40. Mammograms benefit women by detecting cancers early when they are easier to treat, but …
Nomogram to Predict Breast Cancer Related Lymphedema
It has been hypothesized that damaged arm lymphatic drainage is associated with the arm lymphedema after axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). However, the majority of breast cancer patients with complete ALND has not suffered from arm lymphedema, which appears to be due to the residual arm lymph nodes that has …
Genomic Services Research Program
Background Genes are the instructions a person s body uses to function. Genome sequencing reads through all of a person s genes. Everyone has many gene variants, and most do not cause disease. Some gene variants called secondary findings may be important for a person s health even if they …
