About The Study: In this study, a considerable proportion of patients with high-grade serous cancer missed opportunities for risk assessment with genetic testing and for surgical prevention. Given the lack of effective screening and limited treatment options for high-grade serous cancer, eradicating it requires addressing the full spectrum of missed opportunities.
