Abstract The majority of our hereditary breast cancer genes incur not only an increased risk for breast cancer but for other malignancies as well. Knowing whether an individual carries a pathogenic variant in a hereditary breast cancer gene can affect not only screening for the patient but for his or her family members as well. Identifying and appropriately testing individuals via multigene panels allows for risk reduction and early surveillance in at-risk individuals. Radiologists can serve as first-line identifiers of women who are at risk of having an inherited predisposition to breast cancer because they are interacting with all women receiving routine screening mammograms, and collecting family history suggestive of the presence of a mutation. We outline here the 11 genes associated with high breast cancer risk discussed in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network Genetic/Familial High-Risk: Breast and Ovarian (version 3.2019) as having additional breast cancer screening recommendations outside of annual mammography to serve as a guide for breast cancer screening and risk reduction, as well as recommendations for surveillance of nonbreast cancers.
