The WISDOM Study - Join The Movement The WISDOM Study is working to find the safest and most effective way to detect breast cancer for every woman. Join the movement today.

At the WISDOM Study, we use breast density alongside many other factors to help personalize breast cancer screening. Our goal is to support smarter, more effective early detection strategies that are tailored to each individual.

Dense tissue can make it more difficult for radiologists to detect signs of cancer on a mammogram. Women with dense breasts may also have a slightly increased risk of developing breast cancer. Despite this, many women are not informed about their breast density or how it may impact their care.

Breasts are made up of a combination of fatty tissue and dense (fibrous and glandular) tissue. Approximately 50% of women have dense breasts, and that matters for several important reasons

TODAY: Join us today from 4-5pm PST for our monthly Community Forum with WISDOM Founder, Dr. Laura Esserman, and study staff.

To answer this question, we invite you to be a part of our study testing two different approaches to breast screening: annual mammograms and personalized screening schedules based on a woman’s risk for breast cancer (including genetic risk factors, lifestyle, and breast density).

Should we all get a mammogram every year, or should our screening be based on our personal risk factors?
