Cancer society recommends breast MRIs - Yahoo! News (AP)
Interesting...
Something for me (and many of you reading this) to ask our doctors about the next time we have our annual mammograms. Especially if you have the risk factors mentioned in this article.
It is true that sometimes it's better to use more than one tool in order to make sure one is tumor-free. And it's all about catching any possible tumor as soon as possible. Whatever you do, don't wait for it to show up as a lump - I had Stage 2 breast cancer and never had a perceptible lump - not even to doctors!
Over 40? Be sure you get your mammogram (and whatever other relevant tests you might need) annually.
