We all want better ways to find breast cancer early and save lives from this disease. Breast cancer screening can detect cancer early, when it’s most treatable. This guide is meant to help you and your health care professional understand the benefits and risks of breast cancer screening, including what age to start screening and how often people should be screened. This guide is not for women who have a BRCA gene variant, a history of chest radiation, or a personal history of breast cancer. These women should talk to their health care professional about how best to stay healthy.
