Fighting Breast Cancer with Early Detection: MGM Cancer Institute’s Commitment to Women’s Health

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting women worldwide. However, thanks to advancements in early detection and modern treatment options, there’s growing hope. At MGM Cancer Institute, we’re on the front lines of this fight, focusing on early screening, personalized care, and treatments that not only save lives but also improve quality of life.

Why Early Detection Matters

Early detection is the most powerful weapon in the fight against breast cancer. When breast cancer is diagnosed at an early stage:

• Chances of successful treatment increase significantly.
• Smaller tumors are easier to treat.
• The cancer is less likely to have spread, reducing the need for aggressive treatments.

Routine screening through regular mammograms is crucial, especially for women over 40, as it helps detect abnormalities before symptoms even appear.

Avoiding Mastectomy with Modern Treatments

One of the biggest concerns for women diagnosed with breast cancer is the potential need for a mastectomy (surgical removal of the breast). At MGM Cancer Institute, we believe early detection can often help avoid this drastic procedure.

By catching cancer early, many women can:

• Opt for breast-conserving surgeries (like lumpectomies).
• Benefit from targeted therapies and radiation treatments that are less invasive and have fewer side effects.
• Enjoy quicker recoveries with less emotional and physical toll.

Free Mammograms: Making Screening Accessible

We understand that access to screening is a barrier for many women. That’s why MGM Cancer Institute is offering free mammograms to women in our community. Our goal is to:

• Encourage regular screenings for all women, especially those over 40.
• Make early detection accessible, regardless of family history.
• Empower women to take control of their health and prioritize regular breast cancer screenings.
