Why Breast Cancer Screening is Important
Breast cancer screening is a critical component of preventive healthcare. Regular screenings can detect breast cancer early, even before symptoms appear, significantly increasing the chances of successful treatment and survival. The primary screening method is a mammogram, an X-ray of the breast that can identify tumors too small to be felt.
Recommended Screening Guidelines
For women at average risk:
- Ages 40-44: Annual mammograms are optional.
- Ages 45-54: Annual mammograms are recommended.
- Ages 55 and older: Mammograms every two years or continue yearly screening.
For women at higher risk, earlier and more frequent screenings, including additional tests like MRI, may be necessary.
