Medical radiation, family history of cancer, and benign breast disease in relation to breast cancer risk in young women, USA.

Cancer causes & control : CCC - 1 Oct 2002

Hill Deirdre A, Preston-Martin Susan, Ross Ronald K, Bernstein Leslie

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: In previous studies breast cancer risk has been increased among women who received high doses (above 100-200 cGy) of ionizing radiation or those exposed to lower doses prior to age 20. Some evidence suggests that such risk may be distinctly elevated among women with a family history of breast or ovarian cancer (probably only carriers of specific gene mutations) and women with benign breast disease...
