Abstract:

Breast cancer is more easily treated and often curable if it is found early, self-breast exam and screening by mammography combined with clinical breast exam is most effective detection method. Breast Self-Examination should be performed monthly in order to discover changes in breast tissue, the onset of pain in the breast area. 80% of lumps are not cancerous. Be sure to do the breast self-examination the same time every month. If you are still menstruating, Kruper recommends you do the exam about seven to 10 days after your menstrual cycle, since at that time there will likely be fewer cycle-

Abstract:

Breast cancer is the number one cause of death for women. Many women realize they have breast cancer after being in the final stage, as experienced by two church members who are currently undergoing breast cancer treatment. The interview results revealed that some church members had a family history of breast cancer, underscoring the importance of implementing prevention education and breast self-examination within the church. One of the causes of breast cancer is an unhealthy lifestyle, a lack of awareness, a lack of information, and the feeling that they are fine. No family history of the di

There are various screening methods to detect cancer early, and experts suggest that women should perform breast self-examination (BSE) once a month. Unfortunately, most women fail to do so even if they are aware of the risks and the importance of screening methods.

Abstract Background: Personalized breast cancer (BC) screening adjusts the imaging modality and frequency of exams according to a woman's risk of developing BC. This can lower cost and false positives by reducing unnecessary exams and has the potential to find more cancers at a curable stage. Deep learning (DL) is a class of artificial intelligence algorithms that progressively extracts higher-level representations from raw input. A critical challenge to applying DL for BC risk prediction is that images are needed from exams performed before a possible cancer diagnosis. Large longitudinal data

In the early 1970s, a range of women’s health groups increasingly turned their liberationist critiques towards the structures of mainstream medicine, and the self-exam became a vehicle that allowed women to push back against what they cast as the systemic power imbalances involved with the traditional doctor-patient relationship.

Abstract:

Women with a positive family history of breast cancer have a higher relative breast cancer risk. Research pertinent to this “at-risk” population has focused primarily on the early detection measures of breast self-exam, clinical breast exam, and mammography. Other specific primary prevention coping behaviors have received little research attention and, while there are instruments that measure general coping behaviors in the face of illness threat, there are no known instruments that measure coping behaviors specific to dealing with breast cancer threat. This study tested the psychometric prope

Abstract:

Background and context: Breast cancer has the highest incidence and prevalence among cancers in Indonesia. Indonesian rural society has low level of breast cancer knowledge and self examination practice. Difficulty for accessing breast cancer primary health care screening also caused negligence. Furthermore, ignorance and economy situation made patients chose alternative treatments. Hence, most cases are detected at late stages, in which late diagnosis and treatment resulted in high mortality. Aim: Decrease breast cancer mortality by increasing breast cancer knowledge level, monthly self-exami

Abstract:

Breast cancer is the most common cause of death among women worldwide. Breast self-exam (BSE) is considered an important public health procedure; primary prevention should be given the highest priority in the fight against cancer. Pre-experimental one group pre-test post-test research design was adopted. The knowledge score of ANM 1st year Students in post-test shows majority i.e., 95.8 percent acquired above average knowledge while, 4.2 percent had average knowledge and none of them had below average knowledge.

Abstract:

1629 Background: National Comprehensive Cancer Network surveillance guidelines for invasive breast cancer recommend a history and physical exam every 3-12 months for the first 5 years, followed by annually, and mammography every 12 months. However, frequent in-office visits create time toxicity for breast cancer survivors, may have low utility in recurrence detection, and can create false reassurance. This study evaluates the modality of breast cancer recurrence in an integrated health system with access to primary and specialty care. Methods: We investigated mode of detection of recurrent bre

Abstract Background: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy affecting women worldwide. In India, breast cancer is now the most common cancer among women, accounting for 28% of all cancers. Despite good health indicators, breast cancer is a public health problem in Kerala with an annual incidence of 14.9/100,000 population. This study aims to estimate the proportion of women who practice breast self-exam (BSE) in rural areas of Ernakulam district and to assess the awareness of breast cancer in the same community.

Abstract:

Mammogram-detected breast cancers have a better prognosis than those identified through clinical breast exam (CBE) or through self-detection, primarily because tumors detected by mammography are more likely to be smaller and do not involve regional nodes. In a sample of 1,322 Black women, aged 40-75 years, diagnosed with breast cancer between 2002 and 2016, we evaluated factors associated with CBE and self-detection versus screening mammogram as the initial mode of breast cancer detection, using multivariable logistic regression models. Compared with screening mammogram, history of routine scr

Abstract:

611 Background: It is estimated that approximately 10% of all breast cancer patients will develop local recurrence (LR) at 10 years. Routine surveillance for detection of early breast cancer recurrence is widely performed despite lack of conclusive evidence for an improvement in patient quality of life or potential for cure. A number of historical studies evaluating the effectiveness of routine screening for LR following treatment for early-stage breast cancer have suggested that the diagnosis of LR is more frequent during a routine visit and occurring in asymptomatic patients.
