A genome-wide linkage study of mammographic density, a risk factor for breast cancer
INTRODUCTION: Mammographic breast density is a highly heritable (h(2 )> 0.6) and strong risk factor for breast cancer. We conducted a genome-wide linkage study to identify loci influencing mammographic breast density (MD). METHODS: Epidemiological data were assembled on 1,415 families from the Au...
