Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Mammographic density is a strong and highly heritable risk factor for breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which mammographic density explains the association of family history of breast cancer with risk of the disease. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: We carried ou...
