Self-reported barriers to screening breast MRI among women at high risk for breast cancer

CONCLUSIONS: High-risk women reported low uptake of screening breast MRI, indicating a gap in guideline-concordant care. Breast cancer knowledge and screening-supportive social norms are two key areas to target in future interventions. Data were collected during the COVID-19 pandemic and generalizability of results is unclear. Future studies with larger, more heterogeneous samples are needed to replicate these findings.PMID:37640965 | DOI:10.1007/s10549-023-07085-w
