Risk assessment
St. Luke's offers a risk assessment program as part of a woman's annual mammogram appointment because we want to give women every advantage in the fight against breast cancer. Being aware of one's risk allows a woman to take an active role in reducing her chances for developing breast cancer or catching it early, when it's most treatable.
