MICRA Multidimensional Impact of Cancer Risk Assessment For patients who have undergone genetic testing for risk of cancer LICENSE THIS MEASURE Overview Language Availability Licensing Selected References Related Measures Overview Overview The Multidimensional Impact of Cancer Risk Assessment (MICRA) is a tool to measure the specific impact of result disclosure after genetic testing. The authors compared its performance with that of questionnaires measuring general and cancer-specific distress. Participants (158 females) responded 1 month after they received genetic test results. They were divided into 4 standard clinical test result groups: BRCA1/2 positive, BRCA1/2 negative, panel negative, and true negative. Factor analysis supported the formation of 3 subscales: Distress, Uncertainty, and Positive Experiences. All 3 MICRA subscales differentiated participants who were BRCA1/2 positive from the other 3 groups. MICRA thus helps identify subgroups of vulnerable genetic testing participants.
