“The question of how implants affect breast cancer risk and screening tests, like the mammogram, is a question that many women ask,” said
“The good news is that implants do not increase breast cancer risks. But, they also don’t decrease them because women with implants still have their natural breast tissue,” Bevers added.
The researchers advise to pay special attention to breasts and promptly reporting any changes to the doctor.
“The person most likely to find a lump in the breast is the woman herself,” said Bevers.
“With implants, becoming familiar with your breasts is more difficult at first because the breast will have a different texture. It also will have new folds or dimples.
“But after a woman knows her new breasts, having implants should not get in the way of her noticing a change that might be cancer,” she added.
During a mammogram, images are collected by flattening the breast between two mammogram plates. Implants can get in the way of this flattening, which makes it difficult to see the breast as clearly.
However, according to the researchers, this doesn’t mean that women with implants can’t be screened for breast cancer. It just means that women with implants need additional pictures taken during the mammogram.
However, women also should be aware that the size of their implants can affect breast cancer testing.
“Very large implants can be more difficult to image with mammography,” said
“So we suggest that women concerned about breast cancer not get extremely large implants. Stick with implants that fit your body type,” she added.
Cool post cheers, found you through Bing.
Seeing a number of your blogposts I truly found this particular one to be top notch. I have a blogging site also and would love to repost several snips of your respective content on my blog. Should it be ok if I use this as long I reference your web blog or generate a back link to your write-up I took the snip from? If not I recognize and would not do it without having your acceptance . I have book marked this post to twitter as well as myspace accounts intended for reference. Anyway thanks either way!
Your web page doesn’t display appropriately on my iphone4 – you may want to try and repair that
My partner and I really enjoyed reading this post, I was just wanting to know do you trade featured posts? I’m continuously searching for someone to make trades with and merely thought I’d ask.
A cool post right there mate . Cheers for posting.
Added to my favorite list and added to my blogroll.
A subject close to my heart thanks, do you have a RSS feed ?
So not really on the same topic as your post, but I found this today and I just can’t resist sharing. Mrs. Agathe’s dishwasher quit working so she called a repairman. Since she had to go to work the next day, she told him, “I’ll leave the key under the mat. Fix the dishwasher, leave the bill on the counter, and I’ll mail you the check. Oh, and by the way…don’t worry about my Doberman. He won’t bother you. But, whatever you do, do NOT under ANY circumstances talk to my parrot!” When the repairman arrived at Mrs. Agathe’s apartment the next day, he discovered the biggest and meanest looking Doberman he had ever seen. But just as she had said, the dog simply laid there on the carpet, watching the repairman go about his business. However, the whole time the parrot drove him nuts with his incessant cursing, yelling and name-calling. Finally the repairman couldn’t contain himself any longer and yelled, “Shut up, you stupid ugly bird!” To which the parrot replied, “Get him, Spike!”
You have fantastic posts here, Kudos because I find this truly insightful. I have really enjoyed reading your articles. Purely excellent what you have here.
Great post thanks, like your blog layout too. Is it Drupal?
wicked blog, this is going on my twitter.
Adding to my bookmarks thanks, a good fast read.
Hey all,Useful post, although i’m more interested in what will take place out of the google vs facebook social network war. I have not found out much news on it lately, which likely means that it is definitely not that far off, but i have a sense its really going to lead to many great improvements to social networks. For me, i would prefer facebook came out of the war still in the lead mainly because google’s already large enough, plus they currently hold an excessive amount of data on everybody. I do not think that both have the opportunity to exist though, either google’s social network will take over or absolutely crash. Just what does anybody else believe?
