October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month, and the key to breast-cancer survival is early detection. Breast self-exam, or regularly examining your breasts on your own, can be an important way to find breast cancer early, when it's more likely to be treated successfully. Not every cancer can be found this way, but it is a critical step you should take.
A mammogram can be the single most important detection tool available for catching breast cancer in its early stages, when it’s easiest to treat. Huggins Hospital offers the latest technology to detect breast cancer, 3-D mammography. The 3-D mammography screening is a revolutionary diagnostic tool designed for early breast cancer detection. It provides greater visibility for the radiologist so he or she can gain a better understanding of your breast tissue during the screening and the confidence to reduce the need for follow-up imaging.
