WHAT IS THE SCREENING PROCESS FOR BREAST CANCER?


Screening for breast cancer before there are symptoms can be important. Screening can help doctors find and treat cancer early. Treatment is more likely to work well when cancer is found early. Your doctor may suggest the following screening tests for breast cancer:
Screening mammogram
Clinical breast exam
Breast self-exam
You should ask your doctor about when to start and how often to check for breast cancer.
