Of 1,100,000 women tested 18,000 had invasive breast cancer...etc 1:61

The American Cancer Society estimates that 266,120 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed in women in 2018.
Early breast cancers may be asymptomatic, and (Diagnosis of
Breast cancer is often first detected as an abnormality on a mammogram before it is felt by the patient or health care provider) pain discomfort are typically not present. If a lump is discovered, the following may indicate the possible presence of breast cancer.
Screening:
“Early detection remains the primary defense in preventing breast cancer”. Screening modalities include the following:
* Breast self-examination?
* Clinical breast examination?
* Mammography?
* Ultrasonography?
* Magnetic resonance imaging
Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium (BCSC) Risk Calculator
The Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium (BCSC) Risk Calculator was developed and validated in 1.1 million women undergoing mammography across the United States, of whom 18,000 were diagnosed with invasive breast cancer. The BCSC Risk Calculator has been externally validated in the Mayo Mammography Health Study. In 2015, the BCSC risk calculator was updated to include benign breast disease diagnoses and to estimate both 5-year and 10-year breast cancer risk.

Practice Essentials:
Early detection remains the primary way to prevent the development of life-threatening breast cancer. Breast cancers that are detected when smaller or nonpalpable are more treatable and thus are associated with a more favorable prognosis.
Talk about messed up?
(Many expert groups have offered their recommendations for breast cancer screening, and much of the controversy lies in the fact that there is not a consensus about when to begin and end screening, how often to screen, and by what technique. These groups include the following;
* American Cancer Society (ACS)
* American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG)
* American College of Physicians (ACP)
* American College of Radiology (ACR)
* American Medical Association (AMA)
* National Cancer Institute (NCI)
* National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) has
* United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF)).
