What is breast cancer screening?

Screening aims to detect breast cancer before symptoms become noticeable. The appropriate screening method and frequency depend on factors such as age and individual risk. Screening recommendations may vary between guidelines and countries, so discuss your personal screening needs with a healthcare professional.
