Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Asymptomatic women under age 75 who are recommended for annual screening MRI and mammography based on current criteria:
  • Women known to be at high risk for breast cancer because of known or suspected pathogenic mutation, prior chest radiation therapy at least 8 years earlier and before age 30, or estimated lifetime risk of at least 20% based on family history/prior biopsy history (22), between age 30 and 75.
  • Women with extremely dense breasts age 40-75 (about 7% of the screening population (1)) (12).

  • Women with a personal history of breast cancer diagnosed by age 50 or with dense breasts (21), beginning the year after diagnosis (will be recruited under separate ongoing TOCEM protocol).
  • Women with heterogeneously dense breasts and any family history of breast cancer (about 36% of the screening population has dense breasts and about 20% have a family history of breast cancer) who do not meet current high-risk criteria, beginning at age 40 or ten years prior to the age of the youngest relative but not before age 30.
  • Participants are expected to have medical or other reasons that they are not able to have screening breast MRI.
