Research Goals
We have recently found that healthy women who go on to develop breast cancer have greater breast volume asymmetry than those who do not and we need to confirm and explore this concept further in a large sample of women. We will measure breast volume asymmetry from the mammograms of 8000+ healthy women, almost 600 of whom have gone on to develop breast cancer and examine the original risk factor and mammographic profiles of these women to assess the contribution of breast asymmetry and additional factors to breast cancer occurrence.
