Preventive Screenings Can Save Lives
Don’t delay - make your preventive screening appointments today.
Detecting Breast Cancer Early
Finding breast cancer early is one of the most important strategies for preventing deaths from breast cancer. According to the Center for Disease Control, when it’s detected early and in the localized stage, the 5-year relative survival rate of breast cancer is 99%.+
Preventive screenings, such as mammograms, make it easier to find breast cancer early when it’s small and easily treatable.
Common signs of breast cancer are:
- Lumps in your breast
- Changes in the size of your breast
- Differences in the skin of your breast


Getting a Mammogram
A mammogram is an x-ray of the breast used to look for signs of breast cancer. It is recommended that women 40 and over with an average risk for breast cancer should get a mammogram once a year. You can get screened for breast cancer at a clinic, hospital or doctor’s office.
