Women and clinicians held divergent views about an alternative label for DCIS. Women preferred \u201cabnormal cells\u201d over \u201cDCIS\u201d to avoid the word cancer. Clinicians preferred precursor labels (e.g.,\u00a0stage 0 cancer, pre\u2010cancer) over abnormal cells and felt confident explaining DCIS using precursor labels, which triggered women's concern. Women and clinicians held convergent views on how to improve communication about DCIS including language (use lay language rather than technical jargon, explicitly distinguishing DCIS from invasive breast cancer, address the risk of spread beyond the breast ducts and mortality) and other strategies (take time to educate women, using visual aids, providing take\u2010home information, tailoring pathology reports to patients).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study adds to prior research that identified challenges to communication about DCIS but did not fully examine how to improve communication. Several implications emerged for policy (consider formal label change) and practice (share communication aids or other tools with clinicians and patients).
