Changes from the previous system:
Grade 3 ER score 3 (6, +2, +1)
Grade 2 ER+ score 7 (6, +0, 1)
Grade 1 ER+ score 9 (6, 2, 1)
1. HER2+ moves from 4 to 6; should in addition include grade and ER score.
2. Score grade in addition to triple negative, that is, grade.
3. Triple negative =+6 3. Add +2 for high-grade serous ovarian cancer <60, that is, sporadic tumour <60 now scores 15 points (8, +5, +2).
