Research Study on Arm Use in Women With and Without Breast Cancer

Researchers at the University of Dayton Doctor of Physical Therapy Program are conducting a research study on arm use in women with and without breast cancer. The purpose is to learn about arm motion, strength, and use of the arm and shoulder among women who have had breast cancer treatment and compare that information with women who have not had any history of breast cancer or shoulder injury.

You may be able to participate if you are:
  • a female ages 30 to 69;
  • with or without a history of breast cancer and treatment; and
  • no history of shoulder, neck or thoracic surgery.
