Let’s talk about @oliviamunn’s breast cancer diagnosis - breast cancer risk assessment, breast MRI use, what luminal B breast cancer is and more. I think this plus one of the more transparent and honest celebrity stories I have seen.
Sending @oliviamunn love and light as she continues to navigate this diagnosis and what comes after. I hope her story empowers people to talk to their doctors about their personal risk and when to get screened and with which modalities. (*Remember that recommendations to start annual mammography at age 40 are only for those at average risk). #breastcancer
The tool to calculate your risk is the Tyrer Cuzick score (aka IBIS II) and it is publicly available if you search it online.
