Cancer surveillance based on imaging techniques in carriers of BRCA1/2 gene mutations: a systematic review.

The British journal of radiology - 1 Mar 2008

Bermejo-Pérez M J, Márquez-Calderón S, Llanos-Méndez A

Abstract excerpt

We have systematically reviewed the literature focusing on the performance of surveillance programmes and imaging techniques for the early diagnosis of breast and ovarian cancer in women carrying mutations in BRCA1/2 genes. A search for relevant articles published between 1996 and 2005 (inclusive) was run on Medline, Embase and other databases. Of the 749 articles retrieved, only 13 met the inclusion criteria. Of...
