Several ways for breast diagnosis

At present, for examination of breast cancer There are several ways. One is the X-camera Of course, such photography, the American Cancer Society has been brought up, for 35 to 40-year-old can do a photograph, is that in future there is contrast, carries it to a data.

40 and 49 years this once every year or two photos. Than 50-year-old once a year to do photography.

High incidence of breast cancer in our country and the United States and Europe ahead of the age, so we can age a little longer to put a little wide, but I guess that may be over the age of 40. Mammography once a year is a camera to check.

Then the young people, because the glands more dense, mammography camera is not very clear, this time using color Doppler ultrasound to check. In addition to the younger women, mammography breast photography for young women have some damage, so we had better do color Doppler ultrasound to check. There is also a check is called a self-examination.

Molybdenum target young female breast photography for certain injuries that?

That are not fully developed or is not married, or not given birth to a child of such a lesbian, then her breast is not easy to accept the large doses of radiation, because radiation itself can cause cancer, which is why younger women, a contribute little to the diagnosis of it, because the gland is very thick. The second is that it will damage.

For these women, so we do not strongly recommend such a young age to do an annual census of women in contact with molybdenum target X-ray photography. Age, the larger gland atrophy, and this time photographic effect was very good, so for people age, the larger can.

What about the breast self-examination, the international community is controversial, but in China, scholars generally recommend you to do breast self-examination.

That is, each month, for instance, 7 to 10 days after menstruation, mammary glands at this time relatively soft, no pain for doing breast self-examination. Of course, self-examination can do is look in the mirror, you can hand your fingers straight, with ventral check the breast, such as fingers straight, feet close together, with the palm, on the breast, the left hand can check the right side of his right hand can check the on the left, according to clockwise direction line, according to anti-clockwise direction is required.

Of course, do not miss the nipple and areola, in the palm of your hand and the chest wall were found between the nodules, it shows something, but do not pinch the breast up, this check is wrong. Of course, this we do not require the broad masses of women comrades of a very high level of diagnosis is not the case. After menstruation every month 7 to 10 days, you do a check every month to do if it is found not the same as before, and there are unusual feeling, this time went to the hospital to help the examination by a doctor.

No menstrual people looking for a fixed day of each month, for example, on the 1st each month to check in on the 1st. In this case, some of China’s most scholars think that this is more appropriate for China, because we met a lot of out-patient breast cancer patients, the first for his own regardless of the time in the shower or changing clothes, when to sleep when the breast were found to have no intention of abnormal areas.

The controversy in the international arena, the majority of women in some countries a stronger anti-cancer awareness, and sometimes may not be fully recommend self-examination. But the Chinese feel that this is quite helpful. Because it does not require equipment, apparatus, it is safe, inexpensive, do not charge anything, so this is a good way.

Some countries have done a very good anti-cancer, no self-censorship, or such examination flawed, or any other similar effect?

Some countries have done research in these areas, that is, self-censorship among the crowd, it does not improve the diagnostic rate of early breast cancer, it refers to this. But this will not have any damage. However, we found that Chinese doctors to the hospital to see the doctor, some people are often found himself an exception to come to. Therefore, we feel that this at least in the present stage, is still a good simple method. It is in our one among other methods. So I just mention a few, one is a census, you can use mammography camera, you can also use color Doppler ultrasound, as well as self-examination together. Of course, if self-examination found to have abnormal physical examination or a unit of the organization, then do the examination by a doctor, the doctor according to your physical examination can be found, breast, there is no further need for further examination and finally there are many ways to qualitative examination, that is, including puncture or surgical excision biopsy, so you can by cytology and histology to understand is that patients in the end is suffering from breast hyperplasia, breast cancer or benign lesions, the final check is this.
