A genome-wide association study of mammographic texture variation

A genome-wide association study of mammographic texture variation

Abstract Background Breast parenchymal texture features, including grayscale variation (V), capture the patterns of texture variation on a mammogram and are associated with breast cancer risk, independent of mammographic density (MD). However, our knowledge on the genetic basis of these texture feat...
