Mercy High-Risk Breast Program
For women with a family history of breast cancer or other risk factors, Mercy Breast Surgery offers a High-Risk Breast Program in St. Louis to help those patients learn more earlier. Information is collected as part of an annual mammogram and used to calculate the estimated lifetime risk for developing breast cancer using an assessment model. Patients with more than a 20% lifetime risk may be eligible for additional high-risk screenings including a breast MRI and genetic testing, along with additional consultation.
