In this episode of "Mammo Minute," Dr. Arthy Saravanan, Chief of the Breast Imaging Section at Austin Radiological Association, debunks common myths about breast cancer.
Myth #1: "I don't have a family history of breast cancer, so I don't need a mammogram."
Reality: Most women diagnosed with breast cancer have no known family history. Screening mammograms are crucial, as one in eight women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime.
Myth #2: "Small breasts mean I won't get breast cancer."
Reality: Breast cancer risk isn't affected by breast size but may be higher with denser breast tissue. Every woman, regardless of breast size, should prioritize regular screening.
Dr. Saravanan emphasizes that early detection through mammography significantly improves survival rates. Learn the facts and schedule your mammogram today! Like, share, and subscribe for more informative "Mammo Minute" episodes!
