Today I learned about a test that could make a difference in your life or, guys, the life of your lady. It's not one of the online fluff quizes exemplified by "Angelina or Jennifer? See which starlet you're more like!"
The dark, mysterious, homewrecking Academy Award-winning American actress, a former fashion model, and a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Refugee Agency who also played Laura Crawford, Tomb Raider
or
The blonde. all american, #88 on the
Somewhere someone's planning a cage match...
However, ladies this test could make a difference in your life. It's called the Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool and while it was designed for use by health professionals. If you are not a health professional, you are encouraged to discuss the results and your personal risk of breast cancer with your doctor.
It's an interactive tool designed by scientists at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP) to estimate a woman's risk of developing invasive breast cancer. This is the same organization that is conducting the Abraxane clinical trial that Pace is a part of.
Preliminary results indicate the tool has been used with successful for women with strong family histories of breast cancer. However, women carrying the breast cancer-producing mutations in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes obviously should get more testing. It's also not ment for women who have already had a diagnosis of breast cancer, or ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS).
