Breast Cancer: BRCA Gene Testing
... Is BRCA testing accurate? No test is 100% accurate. The BRCA test cannot find all possible changes to the genes. It is possible that the test will show you do not have genetic changes when you do. This is called a false-negative test result. If possible, try to have a family member who has breast or ...

Mutagen
In genetics, a mutagen is a physical or chemical agent that changes the genetic material, usually DNA, of an organism and thus increases the frequency of mutations above the natural background level. As many mutations can cause cancer, mutagens are therefore also likely to be carcinogens. Not all mutations are caused by mutagens: so-called ""spontaneous mutations"" occur due to spontaneous hydrolysis, errors in DNA replication, repair and recombination.
