Summary
This study tested advanced screening methods, such as MRI and breast duct lavage, to find breast cancer earlier in 200 women with BRCA gene mutations. Participants had annual check-ups for three years, including blood tests and imaging. The goal was to see if these methods work better than standard screening and to learn how breast tissue differs in women with and without the gene mutation.
