BREAST CANCER

 


Breast cancer is a disease in which the breast cells grow out of control. There are different types of breast cancer. The type of breast cancer depends on which cells in the breast turn into cancer. Breast cancer can start in different parts of the breast. The chest is made up of three main parts: lobules, groin, and connective tissue. Lobules are milk-producing glands. Pipe tubes carry milk to the nipple. The connective tissue (consisting of fatty and fatty tissue) circulates and holds everything together. Most breast cancers start in the canals or bones. Breast cancer can spread outside the breast through the blood vessels and lymph nodes. When breast cancer spreads to other parts of the body, it is said to have metastasis.

Types of Breast Cancer; The most common type of breast cancer are; Invasive ductal carcinoma, Cancer cells start at the bone marrow and grow out through the channels to other parts of the breast tissue. Invasive cancer cells can spread, or metastasize, to other parts of the body. Infectious lobular carcinoma, cancer cells start in the lobes and then spread from the lobes to the nearby breast tissue. These cancer cells can spread to other parts of the body. There are a few other less common types of breast cancer, such as Paget's disease, medullary external mucosa, mucinous, and inflammatory breast cancer. Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a breast disease that can lead to invasive breast cancer. Cancer cells are located only in the lining of the lungs, and they do not spread to other tissues in the breast.

What Are the Symptoms of Breast Cancer? Different people have different symptoms of breast cancer. Some people have no symptoms at all. Other warning signs for breast cancer are; a new lump on the breast or armpit (armpit), stiffness or swelling of part of the breast, irritation or decay of the breast skin, redness or loose skin in the nipple or breast area, pain in the nipple area, discharge of nipples without breast milk, including blood, any changes in breast size or shape and pain in any part of the breast. Keep in mind that these symptoms can also occur in non-cancerous conditions.

What is a Breast Cancer Screening? Examination of breast cancer without a token means to test a woman’s breasts for cancer before there are any signs or symptoms of the disease. All women need to be informed by their healthcare provider about the best options for their testing. When you are told about the benefits and risks of testing and you decide with your healthcare provider whether the test is right for you and if so when you did it this is called informed decision-making and sharing.

 

Although breast cancer screening will not prevent breast cancer, it can help detect early breast cancer, where it is easier to treat. Talk to your doctor about what breast cancer tests are right for you, and when you should have them.

How Is Breast Cancer Detected? Doctors often use additional tests to diagnose or diagnose breast cancer. They may refer women to a breast specialist or a surgeon. This does not mean that you have cancer or that you need surgery. These doctors are experts in diagnosing breast problems. Breast ultrasound; a device that uses sound waves to create images, called sonograms, is located inside the breast. Diagnostic mammogram; If you have a problem with your breast, such as lumps, or if the breast area appears abnormal when you have a mammogram, doctors may ask you to get a mammogram. This is an X-ray with many details of the breast. Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); is a type of physical scanner that uses a computer-connected magnet. An MRI scan will take detailed images of the inside of the breast. Biopsy; This is a test that removes tissue or fluid from the breast for a microscope and further testing. There are different types of biopsies (for example, fine-needle aspiration, core biopsy, or open biopsy). Staging; When breast cancer is detected, tests are performed to determine if the cancer cells have spread to the breast or other parts of the body. This process is called the stage. Whether the cancer is only in the breast, found in the lymph nodes under your arm, or spread outside the breast determines your stage of breast cancer. The type and stage of breast cancer tell doctors what kind of treatment they need. For more information, visit Breast Cancer Categories.

What is a Mammogram? A mammogram is an X-ray image of a breast. Doctors use a mammogram to look for early signs of breast cancer. Regular mammograms are one of the best tests for doctors to diagnose breast cancer early, sometimes up to three years before it is diagnosed. How is a mammogram done? You will stand in front of a special X-ray machine. The specialist will place your chest on a plastic plate. The other plate will press your breast from the top. The plates will soften the breast, holding it in place during the X-ray. You will feel pressure. The steps are repeated to create a side view of the breast. The other breast will be X-rayed the same way. You will then have to wait while the specialist examines four X-rays to confirm that the images do not need to be reproduced. Remember that a specialist cannot tell you the results of your mammogram. Each woman's mammogram may look a little different because all breasts are slightly different.

How Is Breast Cancer Treated? Breast cancer is treated in many ways. It depends on the type of breast cancer and how widespread it is. People with breast cancer often receive more than one treatment. Surgery; surgery when doctors cut the cancerous tissue. Chemotherapy; using special medications to reduce or kill cancer cells. Medications can be pills you take or medicines given to your veins, or sometimes both. Hormonal Therapy; It prevents cancer cells from getting the hormones they need to grow. Biological treatment; It works with your immune system to help you fight cancer cells or control side effects from other cancer treatments. Radiation therapy; Using high-dose radiation (such as X-rays) to kill cancer cells. Different specialist doctors often work together to treat breast cancer. Surgeons are surgeons. Medical professionals are doctors who specialize in treating cancer. Radiation oncologists are physicians who specialize in radiating cancer.
