Reported by: Robin Thibault, KARK 4 NEWS Monday, Jan 5, 2009 @05:32pm CST When it comes to screening for breast cancer -- it seems two methods may be better than one, according to research.
Most women considered at high risk for breast cancer get a mammogram and an m-r-i once a year -- around the same time. But, a new study found that an m-r-i was better at detecting tumors than mammograms. However, mammograms should still be used because they are able to detect microcalcifications -- which are small bits of calcium, and are usually not cancerous. |
