can you disclose about the gene mutation that angelina jolie has. >> i was sorry to hear that angelina jolie had to go through this and unfortunately that's all we have to offer women who have the gene for breast cancer right now. we don't have good prevention. this gene predicts for ovarian and breast cancer. likely her mother had the gene as well and that's why she got ovarian cancer, then angelina decided to get tested to see if she had it. and it's a reasonable thing to do in that situation, although the gene is not that common, actually, in women in general. >> should -- let's get a little perspective. should all women be tested for this gene? angelina jolie says the test costs about $3,000, which is obviously pretty expensive. >> all women should not be tested for this gene. it is not that common. and the people who should consider being tested are ones who have a lot of breast or ovarian cancer in their families. if possible it's always better to have someone who has cancer be tested rather than someone who doesn't have cancer. because then you can see if there really is a gene
