Early Mammography Screening Decreases Risk of Fatal Breast Cancer

Jun 2, 2020

 

Cancer is a sickness that has taken many loved one all throughout the world. Most cancers usually go undiagnosed for a long time until it is too late for early removal techniques. In order for people to stay as healthy as possible, you must practice one of the most important rules of health: Prevention is the best form of treatment. People try all types of prevention techniques for cancer. There is nothing wrong with coming in for a routine mammography in order to establish a healthy peace of mind over breast cancer.

 

Fatal Breast Cancer

 

For the best prevention against fatal breast cancer, we recommend having a screening every 18 months – 2 years. A mammography scan is a process that consists of using low-energy X-rays to scan the breast area for inconsistencies. The main goal for a mammography is the detection of any masses that would indicate any form of breast cancer. Breast cancer that isn’t detected for long periods of time may rapidly turn into something of a fatal nature. This undetected cancer will eventually begin to spread to vital areas of the body such as the lungs, liver or even the heart. If so, then breast cancer could eventually lead to death.
