1 MAMMOGRAPHY RADIOGRAPHIC IMAGING OF THE BREAST Part 2 -Statistics A mammogram can find breast cancer when it is very small -- 2 to 3 years before you can feel it. No screening tool is 100% effective. Good quality mammograms can find 85-90% of cancers 2 Regular breast screening can find cancer when it is small which means: there is a better chance of treating the cancer successfully it is less likely to spread there may be more treatment options 3 MAMMOGRAM REMAINS THE SINGLE MOST SENSITIVE TECHNIQUE IN DETECTION OF BREAST CANCER (ACR) OTHER MODALITIES: ULTRASOUND MRI OTHER - thermography 4 PATIENT FEARS PAINFUL FIND SOMETHING WRONG / DENIAL UNINFORMED “causes cancer” 5 RISK FACTORS SEX 99% WOMEN 1 % MEN AGE – INCREASE WITH AGE* YOUNGER WOMENFASTER GROWING CELLS 6 MORE RISK FACTORS HISTORY PREGNANCY & ABORTIONS OBESTIY EARLY MENSES LATE MENOPAUSE 7 ACS GUIDLINES women age 40 to 49 have a routine screening mammogram every one to two years with the first one beginning at age 40 BASELINE - for comparison 8 Breast cancer – ACS Yearly mammograms are recommended starting at age 40 and continuing for as long as a woman is in good health. Clinical breast exam (CBE) should be part of a periodic health exam, about every 3 years for women in their 20s and 30s and every year for women 40 and over. Women should know how their breasts normally feel and report any breast change promptly to their health care providers. Breast selfexam (BSE) is an option for women starting in their 20s. Women at high risk (greater than 20% lifetime risk) should get an MRI and a mammogram every year. Women at moderately increased risk (15% to 20% lifetime risk) should talk with their doctors about the benefits and limitations of adding MRI screening to their yearly mammogram. Yearly MRI screening is not recommended for women whose lifetime risk of breast cancer is less than 15%. 9 EDUCATION – breast self exam MONTHLY CBE –clinical breast exam – 3-6 months MAMMOGRAM – ANUALLY * BEGIN AGE 35 BSE 10 Best Time For BSE The American Cancer Society urges women to perform breast self-examination (BSE) once a month about a week after the menstrual period Post-menopausal women should choose a set day, such as the first of the month, to practice self-examination. 11 Begin by looking at your breasts in the mirror with your shoulders straight and your arms on your hips. Here's what you should look for: Breasts that are their usual size, shape, and color. Breasts that are evenly shaped without visible distortion or swelling. If you see any of the following changes, bring them to your doctor's attention: Dimpling, puckering, or bulging of the skin. A nipple that has changed position or become inverted (pushed inward instead of sticking out). Redness, soreness, rash, or swelling. 12 13 14 Some cancers are not found until they reach this size A mammogram can find cancer when it is only this size 15 16 Cancer statistics Breast cancer strikes about 180,000 American women yearly and kills about 44,000 Next to skin cancer, breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women in the United States It is second only to lung cancer in cancerrelated deaths 17 RISK "Lifetime risk is the likelihood that a newborn girl will develop breast cancer sometime during her entire life.
