Summary
This study looked at whether telling older women about the risk of overdiagnosis (finding cancers that would never cause harm) changes their desire to get mammograms. 311 women aged 70+ answered survey questions and watched a video explaining overdiagnosis. The goal was to see if this knowledge affects their screening choices.
