  schema:description "An interval breast cancer is one diagnosed after a normal screening mammogram and before the next invitation. Fast-growing cancers, triple-negative disease among them, make up a larger share of interval than of screen-detected cancers, which is why a new breast change should always be checked rather than left until the next screen."@en ;
