AB  - Breast  cancer  survivors  number  more  than  2,000,000  in  the  United  States  alone.1  Improvements  in  screening  technology,  increased  uptake  of  screening,  and  advances  in  adjuvant  therapy2  as  well  as  the  aging  of  the  population  are  bound  to  lead  to  even  greater  numbers  of  breast  cancer  survivors  over  time.  The  Institute  of  Medicine  report  entitled  From  Cancer  Patient  to  Cancer  Survivor:  Lost  in  Transition  reported  on  the  health,  psychosocial,  family,  employment,  and  financial  needs  of  survivors  of  cancer  and  provided  recommendations  for  improving  the  quality  of  care  and  health  outcomes  of  cancer  survivors.3  Follow-up  of  the  breast  cancer  survivor  is  one  important  aspect  of  survivorship  care.
