The ACS recommends the following guidelines for finding breast cancer early in women without symptoms: Clinical breast exam: Women in Breast Cancer Screening, it could save your life… Reviso de Cancer de mama, puede salvar su vida... their 20s and 30s should have a clinical breast exam (CBE) as part of a regular exam by a health expert, at least every 3 years. After age 40, women should have a breast exam by a health expert every year. Mammogram: Women age 40 and older should have a screening mammogram every year and should keep on doing so for as long as they are in good health. While mammograms can miss some cancers, they are still a very good way to find breast cancer. American Cancer Society http://www.cance r.org/cancer/brea Mes de sensibilización sobre cáncer de mama El cáncer de mama es el cáncer más común entre las mujeres en los Estados Unidos, aparte del cáncer de piel. Es la segunda causa principal de muerte por cáncer en mujeres, después del cáncer de pulmón. La SAC recomienda las siguientes pautas para detectar el cáncer de mama precoz en mujeres sin síntomas: examen clínico de seno: Las mujeres de 20 y 30 años deben hacerse un examen clínico de los senos (CBE) como parte de un examen regular por un experto en salud, por lo menos cada 3 años. Después de 40 años de edad, las mujeres deben hacerse un examen de mama por un experto en salud cada año. Mamografía: mujeres de 40 años en adelante deben hacerse un mamograma cada año y deben seguir haciéndolo durante el tiempo que estén en buen estado de salud. Mientras que los mamogramas pueden pasar por alto algunos cánceres, siguen siendo una muy buena manera de detectar el cáncer de mama.
