What is the Allred test?

[DianneS]

I have been asked this question and I can't honestly answer. I scored 4 out of 8, that's all I know.

I googled it and found nothing. Someone on this forum said I was lucky to have access to this test. Can someone please explain what it is and what it predicts?

Thanks!

It came right up for me with google - lots of hits on "allred score breast cancer". But I can't seem to copy/paste the table. It looks at intensity AND proportion of ERPR. If you scroll down a ways in this article, there's an explanation, and a table (old article but the Allred Score hasn't changed).
