Brief Summary
Background: \- The Chinese University of Hong Kong and the National Cancer Institute are conducting a breast tissue study in connection with another study on breast health. This larger study will look at breast health in women who live in Hong Kong. Women in the breast health study will provide a breast tissue sample during biopsy surgery. Researchers want to use part of the sample to study changes in breast tissue that are related to breast diseases. This sample study is part of the larger study. Objectives: \- To look at changes in breast tissue that are related to breast diseases. Eligibility:
- Women who are participating in the Hong Kong breast health study.
- Participants must be having a biopsy to remove breast tissue for study. Design:
- Participants will have a biopsy to remove a breast tissue sample. Most of the sample will be used for diagnosis. A portion of the leftover tissue will be used for this study.
- No extra surgery will be required.
- Treatment will not be provided as part of this study.
