about MRI as a screening modality for breast cancer in the

A 35-year-old G0P0 woman presents to clinic with a complaint
of bilateral nipple discharge. This discharge started several
weeks ago and has occurred at irregular intervals since that
time. She does not complain of local tenderness, redness, fever,
or any other systemic symptoms aside from slightly irregular
periods over the last few months. On examination, she is able
to express a small amount of discharge, which is sent to the
laboratory and found to be consistent with breast milk but

cousin was recently diagnosed with this disease. This cousin is
the third family member on her father's side in as many years
to be diagnosed with breast cancer, including the patient's own
father, who had surgery and subsequent treatment 3 years ago
for breast cancer. The patient has little other knowledge of her
family history, only that her grandparents independently
arrived from Eastern Europe near the end of World War II and
were among very few members of their family that survived the
war. The patient has read about testing for the breast cancer
genes (BRCA1 and BRCA2) and desires further information
about whether this would be appropriate for her. Which of the
following is true about this patient's indications for BRCA
testing? - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > This patient carries several
