ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is focused on understanding why some people are more likely to develop breast cancer than others and how different factors may affect their outcomes. Researchers are looking at various risk factors and the results of people with breast cancer and those without it. The study is currently recruiting participants, and anyone aged 18 and older who has been seen at specific breast radiology clinics in Florida may be invited to join.

To participate, you should be someone who has had a breast exam and may need a biopsy, as identified by your healthcare provider. Anyone under 18 years old or unable to complete a survey for the study will not be eligible. If you decide to take part, you can expect to complete a survey that helps researchers gather important information about your health and experiences related to breast cancer. This study aims to improve our understanding of breast cancer risk and outcomes, which could help in developing better prevention and treatment strategies in the future.
