A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to establish a longitudinal cohort of 10,000 women who undergo routine annual mammography screening, with follow-up for at least five years or until a breast cancer diagnosis occurs. Participants will complete questionnaires about their personal and family cancer history, health status, and lifestyle factors, and will provide blood samples at baseline and annually. The study will create a repository of blood specimens and a comprehensive database of imaging and clinical data to facilitate future research on breast cancer and women's health.
