Breast asymmetry and predisposition to breast cancer.

Breast cancer research : BCR - 1 Jan 2006

Scutt Diane, Lancaster Gillian A, Manning John T

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: It has been shown in our previous work that breast asymmetry is related to several of the known risk factors for breast cancer, and that patients with diagnosed breast cancer have more breast volume asymmetry, as measured from mammograms, than age-matched healthy women. METHODS: In the present study, we compared the breast asymmetry of women who were free of breast disease at time of mammography,...
