Poster Abstract
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women in the United States. Treatment options are wide-‐ ranging based on a multitude of factors, including extent of disease and receptor positivity. Following treatment, a relapse-‐free interval ≥ 2 years carries a more favorable prognosis.
