High breast tissue density is associated with increased risk of breast cancer. Transillumination Breast Spectroscopy (TIBS) uses a white light to provide spectral information on breast tissue density and composition (e.g. water, lipid, hemoglobin and other biomolecules). The overall goal of the TIBS program is to develop a technique that can identify individuals at high risk for breast cancer who would benefit most from improved screening methods and a risk reducing intervention (e.g. diet and lifestyle changes) and can monitor the efficacy of the risk reducing intervention itself in an individual. In a previous study, we demonstrated a high correlation between breast density assessed by TIBS and density identified by x-ray mammography. The current study is testing TIBS ability to monitor changes in an individual's breast density over time"}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '45 Years', 'minimumAge': '25 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Cases recruited from the Reproductive Biology Unit at Mount Sinai Hospital and the University Health Network community.
