There has been a rise in the number of diagnosed UK cases of an early form of breast cancer, figures show.

Nearly 3,800 women were diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ in 2002, compared to 2,910 five years earlier.

Experts believe the national breast cancer screening programme has helped to spot more cases.

The charity Cancer Research UK is launching a study to assess which of two hormone therapy drugs is best at preventing the disease returning.
