Breast Cancer surveillance and outcomes

Breast cancer surveillance involves regularly screening and monitoring individuals at risk to detect cancer early, improving treatment success. Common methods include mammograms, clinical exams, and sometimes MRI scans. Outcomes focus on early detection, effective treatment, and survival rates. Advances aim to identify cancer before symptoms appear, reducing the risk of advanced disease and improving overall prognosis. Surveillance can also track treatment response and monitor for recurrence. The goal is to catch issues early, personalize care, and enhance quality of life for those affected.
