Defining Texture Characteristics in Breast Tissue (The DETECT study)

The purpose of the DETECT study is to learn more about how some breast tissue features show up on a mammogram and what these features can tell us about the potential for a breast cancer diagnosis. Your participation will help us understand how the appearance of those breast tissue features is affected by hormone levels. Our objective is to collect urine samples that we will use to measure hormone levels. We will examine how hormone levels are related to breast tissue features measured from a breast cancer screening mammogram.
