This is an observational retrospective study. Patients considered by mastologists to be at genetic risk and who have undergone genetic testing with a geneticist will have their electronic medical records reviewed and, if eligible for the study, will answer questions conducted by the virtual assistant using AI about their family history of cancer.
This study will be conducted in two centers. The first is the Breast Center at Hospital Moinhos de Vento, designated as the coordinating center, located in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. It is a private center composed of a multidisciplinary team dedicated to breast health care, from routine exams for early detection of malignant tumors, diagnosis, comprehensive treatment at different stages of the disease, to post-treatment follow-up. The second center, designated as a participant, is the Human Genetics Center (CEGH/ICB), located in Goiânia, Brazil. This entity works interdisciplinarily and is linked to the Institute of Biological Sciences at the Federal University of Goiás (UFG), with the aim of developing activities in diagnosis, education, research, and outreach in the field of human genetics.
CEGH/ICB is a public institution that serves women with breast cancer from the Unified Health System (SUS), and its role in the research is to share collected data from the population of interest with the coordinating center.
