Ethnicity and Breast Cancer

There are some associations between ethnicity and Breast cancer. ALL women should be screened routinely per the current guidelines, but research indicates that white, non-Hispanic women have a higher prevalence of breast cancer overall, but other differences have also been found. For example, black women have higher prevalence in the 40-50 year age group when compared to white women. Further, black women, in general, have an overall higher mortality than any other ethnicity.
