The single greatest Breast Cancer risk factor


JULY 24, 2010 By Robert Graham -- Washington, DC



The single greatest Breast Cancer risk factor is a family history of the disease.
Autosomal dominant inheritance of breast cancer is characterized by
transmission of cancer predisposition from generation to generation,
With the Increased use of preoperative MRI may play a role, but mastectomy rates also
rose in women not undergoing preoperative MRI.Mastectomy rates
have been on the upswing at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota,
and researchers cited MRI as a factor influencing the increase.


Inheritance risk of 50%. When a parent carries an autosomal dominant genetic
predisposition, each child has a 50:50 chance of inheriting the predisposition.

Both males and females can inherit and transmit an autosomal dominant
cancer predisposition. A male who inherits a cancer predisposition and shows
no evidence of it can still pass the altered gene on to his sons and daughters

One of the ways to be sure that a Mastectomy is the way to go is genomics
Genomics is the study of the human cancer genome. It is a search within
"cancer families" and patients for the full collection of genes and
mutations--both inherited and sporadic--that contribute to the development
of a cancer cell and its progression from a localized cancer to one that grows
uncontrolled and metastasizes (spreads throughout the body).


To Educate Oncologist and Breast Cancer Patients and in rural areas,is to incorporate
TeleMedicine using Wireless BroadBand Spectrum that President Obama has given the FCC
the okay allocate to customers in Rural areas. Others technologies will help Breast Cancer
Patients Make better treatment choices is listed below

Cloud computing:
  • Worldwide revenue from public IT cloud services exceeded $16 billion in 2009
Software as a Service:
  • SaaS = 73% of public Cloud services revenue in 2009
  • Forecasted to reach $55.5B in 2014, with a CAGR of 27.4%
  • Public IT cloud will be over 25% of the net-new growth in traditional IT
  • products between now and 2014.

It is clear to Hybrid Medical Analytics that we can help Oncologist help their Breast
Cancer Patients.
