According to the American Cancer Soci-
ety, one out of ten women will develop
breast cancer sometime in her lifetime. It is
currently estimated
that over 37,000 women die each year as a result of breast cancer.
Ninety percent of breast cancers are diagnosed by women or their physicians finding
a lump in the breast. Women who are diagnosed with a lump large enough to feel have
a 50 percent five year survival rate. A woman who is diagnosed as having breast cancer
by mammography, before a lump can be felt, has a 97% five year survival rate and a
90% 10 year survival rate. The cost is only $60.00 + $4.50 S&H.
A mammogram can detect a cancer this small, • even before it can be felt.
