Find out why early detection is vital
The reason why early detection of breast cancer is so important.
When breast cancer is found early, most women will get better and get back to their normal lives, with their families and loved ones. This is because breast cancer can be treated more effectively when it is still small and has not spread outside the breast to other parts of the body.
For women over the age of 50, a mammogram is the best method available for detecting breast cancer early.
