  1. CR 10-year cumulative risk (%)
  2. *No family history includes women who did not have any first-degree or second-degree relative with in situ or invasive breast cancer
  3. §Example: The 10-year cumulative risk of a woman at age 50 years with a relative diagnosed with breast carcinoma in situ was 3.4%, which is higher than the risk for her peer without such a family history (2.1%)
