(1) have shown that interval breast cancers, defined as cancers detected within 12 months after a negative mammography, are frequently high-grade, rapidly growing, and aggressive cancers. In particular, tumor proliferation rate and p53 overexpression are independent determinants of interval breast cancers, and these characteristics are seen more often amon...
