More Information (91.7 The Wave is not responsible for external websites)
Women 40 years and over with no symptoms are eligible for a FREE screening mammogram.
Breast cancer is the most common life threatening cancer for women and 1 in 7 women in Australia will develop breast cancer in their lifetime.
Having a screening mammogram (breast x-ray) every two years significantly increases the chance of a woman surviving breast cancer and reduces the amount of treatment required. More than 75 per cent of breast cancers occur in women over the age of 50. Research shows that screening is most effective for this age group.
Screening mammograms may detect 70 to 90 per cent of breast cancers.
Any woman with a persistent change in a breast should contact her doctor immediately.
Early detection is your best protection.
