“…This demands tools that are easy to use, do not disrupt routine clinical practice, and reflect current science in understanding contributions of factors driving breast cancer risk. Studies show that measures of mammographic breast density (MD), polygenic risk score (PRS), and modifiable and nonmodifiable "life course risk factors" are independently related to risk for breast cancer (1,2).…”

“…This would involve tailoring screening initiation and frequency to a woman's individual risk profile (e.g., age, breast density, genetics, family cancer history) through use of a validated risk model and consideration of women's preferences (e.g., values and beliefs). 3,11,12 Currently, there are no guidelines for clinicians on how to evaluate and incorporate patients' individual breast cancer risks (beyond age) and preferences in shared decision making regarding mammography screening. Implementing risk-based screening may be challenging.…”

“…In contrast to high penetrance mutations, genetic polymorphisms are very common in the general population, but are typically associated with a modest risk of cancer. However, it is believed that when a large number of such polymorphisms are combined, the magnitude of the risk conferred could be very significant 5 . In recent years, polymorphisms in microRNA genes have been widely investigated as the gene products play important roles in regulating the expression of many cancer-related genes [6][7][8] .…”
