New ACS Study: The Benefits of Mammography
New ACS Journals Study
A study published in ACS Journals, Mammography Screening Reduces Rates of Advanced and Fatal Breast Cancers, found substantial benefits in participating in mammography screening (41% reduction in the incidence of fatal breast cancers within 10 years of diagnosis) and that lives are saved through early detection. The benefit of screening appeared to be independent of treatment regimens.
