Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIM: Several algorithms have been developed to assess the risk of predicting BRCA mutation and breast cancer (BC) risk. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of these prediction algorithms in the Israeli population. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Risk for developing breast cancer and the probability for carrying BRCA1/2 mutations using BOADICEA, BRCAPRO, IBIS, MYRIAD and PENN2 models were computed...
