Breast cancer cannot be pre-
vented, but early detection can save
many lives. Breast cancer will
strike one in nine American women.

dicts that about 44,000 women will
die of breast cancer this year. Ex-
perts estimate that if every woman
had regular mammograms accord-
ing to guidelines established by the
American Cancer Society, nearly a
third of the women who die of
breast cancer would survive. The
guidelines are;
a) begin mammography by age
40
b) age 40-49 mammogram every
1-2 years
c) over age 50 annual
mammogram
d) monthly breast self-examina-
tion
e)
regular breast exams by a
physician
Mammography is the best
means for early detection of breast
cancer.
