<p>The UK National Screening Committee (UK NSC) currently recommends that all women
aged 50 years old to 71 years old are invited for breast screening every three years.
A trial, AgeX is looking at the impact of increasing or decreasing, or both, the screening
age for the breast screening programme. When the results from this trial are available,
the UK NSC will review the findings. The UK NSC plans to review the evidence for risk
stratification in breast screening to tailor it more closely to an individual’s risk
of cancer, rather than the current population-based approach.</p>
