Do women with a history of breast cancer recommend risk-based breast cancer screening? An in-depth interview study
This study identifies challenges and enablers for enhancing breast screening in Singapore, based on the experiences of breast cancer survivors. Participants supported RBS for routine screening. Successful RBS implementation requires improved health literacy, HCP engagement, and accessible healthcare. Women's acceptance will rely on research to refine prediction accuracy and communication of risk results.
