Breast Cancer Kyu Hota Hai
Breast cancer is a global health issue that can no longer be ignored. Substantial support for breast cancer awareness and research funding has helped created advances in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. Breast cancer survival rates have increased, and the number of deaths associated with this disease is steadily declining, largely due to factors such as earlier detection, a new personalized approach to treatment and a better understanding of the disease.
This year, many people will be diagnosed with breast cancer. The good news is that advances like earlier detection, new treatment and a better understanding of the disease, have helped survival rates improve tremendously over the past few decades.
The American Cancer Society is attacking breast cancer from every angle. We're funding groundbreaking research and fighting for federal policies that help protect people from the disease, helping people get well through support and services, speaking out on important issues, and giving people the information they need to reduce their risk. Join our efforts to save lives from breast cancer.
The American Cancer Society estimates there will be around 45,000 deaths (about 15% of all cancer deaths) and 248,000 new cases of female breast cancer in 2014. A major factor in the decline in breast cancer deaths is the increased use of mammography screening and early detection, which leads to earlier diagnosis. An estimated 70% of all breast cancers are detected by a mammogram.
