70% of breast cancer occur in the so-called normal people who, only a very small number of breast cancer is caused by genetic factors. The normal population by screening of breast cancer screening, while some early cases may be free from the pain caused by chemotherapy or radiotherapy; the other hand, the number of early cases can be reduced extent of the operation, so that the breast is retained, will pose difficult patients describe the psychological comfort, so that they increase a level of quality of life. Early breast cancer found that, after proper treatment, the 5-year survival rate of up to 90%. As the United States has carried out large-scale screening of breast cancer screening, early limitations of breast cancer 5-year survival rate after treatment had reached 97%. On the contrary, because he found the breast lump has been detected mostly in the terminally ill. Treatment effect at this stage is not only bad, but also costly, ranging from tens of thousands, as many as hundreds of thousands. The census of early detection of cases, treatment easy and cost reduction can be described as more with less.
Depends largely on the success of treatment of breast cancer patients diagnosed during the staging of the disease. Found that a relatively early stage breast cancer patients is far greater than the current significance of any treatment. Continuous in-depth epidemiological studies of breast cancer, screening and early detection of breast cancer control will play a direct and critical role. Strive for early detection. Early diagnosis and proper treatment is to control the basic strategy of breast cancer. Of breast cancer screening survey to discover more of early cancer, to improve the cure rate and reduce mortality.
Specification of breast cancer screening to be of value
At present, international survey on the widely used breast cancer the best way is to check with medical personnel to personally hand-molybdenum target X-ray image. The sensitivity of the census can reach 75 ~ 90%. Very early and can identify those small cancer (diameter less than 0.5 cm) and pre-clinical cancer. Right breast for B-test, in the West women are a secondary inspection.
The general population aged from 40 a year, starting a second X-ray examination and clinical breast examination. At high risk of breast cancer may advance to participate in breast cancer screening. Six types of high-risk groups include: family history of breast cancer; 12 persons before the age of menarche; 30-year-old young man over the age of a child .40 is not pregnant. Celibacy. Marriageable age of marriage is too large or short persons; the side of the person who has had breast cancer, female; suffering from breast lobular hyperplasia, or ductal hyperplasia. physique associated with obesity or diabetes; girl is subject to radiation and long-term often have a history of radiation exposure.
Professional screening must have three conditions
Professional breast cancer screening should have three conditions: First, professional doctors, only those with breast diagnosis and treatment of professional experience and professional qualifications of the doctors in order to ensure the reliability of screening results. The reason is that, early breast cancer is not necessarily typical of ultrasound or mammography performance, just for imaging may result in a considerable number of missed diagnosis, these patients may be experienced doctors by medical discovery; the same, no matter how rich the experience of doctors, can not rely solely on the results of palpation Erwang conclusions; only integrated scientific assessment body and check the results of imaging is only possible to the diagnostic accuracy rate to customer satisfaction. 2 is a professional equipment, Mammography X-ray radiography and ultrasonic diagnostic equipment are the must-have, including digital mammography equipment, high-definition, for doctors to help much; for over 50 years of age in the elderly population, mammography examination significance than all other technologies combined. 3 is a professional program, screening agencies should provide for the inspection system, inspection recommendations and long-term planning of the health check, and test results to make a comprehensive assessment. He appealed to the broad masses of women receiving regular breast cancer screening, only the professional process. Equipment and personnel in order to guarantee the effectiveness of breast cancer screening in order to ensure early detection of breast cancer. Early diagnosis. Early treatment.
Some of the so-called breast examination is worthless. Early studies have concluded that the United States, infra-red examination for breast cancer screening worthless. Professional Committee of Chinese Anti-Cancer Association of breast cancer in 2007 made clear that breast cancer screening guidelines breast cancer screening should not be used infra-red inspections.
The current medical science still can not do preventive measures, only the long-term adherence to regular and effective inspection possible early stages of the disease found and give a timely intervention. All in all, breast cancer screening point is long-term adherence. Regular inspections. Check equal emphasis on body and image.
