Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Interest in searching for mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 is high. Knowledge regarding these genes and the advantages and limitations of genetic testing is limited. It is unknown whether increasing knowledge about breast cancer genetic testing alters interest in testing. METHODS: Three hundred and seventy nine women (260 with a family history of breast cancer; 119 with breast cancer) from The Royal...
