## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Intensive screening is an alternative to prophylactic mastectomy in women at high risk for developing breast carcinoma. The current article reports preliminary results from a screening protocol using highβquality magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ductal lavage (DL), clini
Although chemopreventive anti-steroids such as the antiestrogens are thought to act through competitive inhibition of agonist binding to estrogen receptors, it has been postulated that the estrogen receptor changes its conformation when bound to a strong antiestrogen such as ICI-164,384. We hypothes
Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from the existing vascular network, has been demonstrated to be an important prognostic factor in invasive breast carcinoma. The switch to an angiogenic phenotype represents a growth-limiting step during carcinogenesis and might, in pre-invasive lesio
## Abstract The interplay between cancer cells and the normal surrounding tissue is believed to influence the biological behavior of the tumor. However, the presence of multiple cell types within the prelevated tumor specimen may attenuate changes that occur specifically in the malignant cells with
