Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Screening mammography is associated with a small dose of radiation to the breast, and women with increased genetic risk might be particularly sensitive to the DNA-damaging effects of ionising radiation. We aimed to assess whether exposure to ionising radiation through mammography screening was associated with risk of breast cancer in BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation carriers. METHODS: We identified 1600 cases...
