ACOSTA CAMACHO, Odelinda; FERNANDEZ VACA, Javier; GORIS ACOSTA, Lilianne  e  GORIS ACOSTA, Laura Hilda. BRCAR: Support Tools for Risk Evaluation of Breast Cancer. RCIM [online]. 2021, vol.13, n.1  Epub 01-Abr-2021. ISSN 1684-1859.

Introduction:

Breast cancer is the most frequent malignant tumour in the world; it is the second cause of women death in Cuba. The insufficiency in early diagnosis and the existence of novel treatment strategies raise the need to establish effective ways to identify risk in healthy people, however in our country there is no effective method to predict risk and direct preventive actions and therapeutic.

Objective:

To create a national standard aimed at identifying breast cancer as a support to medical practice and support tool in risk assessment.

Method:

28 variables (determined by risk factors for breast cancer) were combined; assigning to those variables weighting parameters associated with the level of incidence recorded in the medical literature, using a voting algorithm as the central mathematical element.

Results:

A computerized system was developed to assess the risk of breast cancer in healthy people.

Conclusions:

BRCAR is a support tool to objectify the risk of breast cancer, by determining the impact of certain risk factors, in order to direct study methods for early detection.

Palavras-chave : breast cancer; BRCAR; predictive test; mathematical algorithm; susceptibility test.
