Using the Gail Model to Help Your Patients
The Gail model is a nationally accepted epidemiologic model for identifying women at higher inherited risk for breast and ovarian cancer based on family history. UVa's High Risk Care clinic is pleased to offer 200 free Gail model hand-held calculators to physicians in Virgina to assist in diagnosing and treating patients.
An online model of the calculator is also available on the National Cancer Institute's website.
