Why is breast screening important?
Many breast conditions develop over a long period and initially remain unnoticed. Modern imaging makes it possible to detect these changes at an early stage.
Early diagnosis offers significant advantages:
- Higher chances of successful treatment
- Less invasive therapy options
- Prevention of advanced disease stages
Regular screening is therefore a key component of preventive healthcare.
Modern Imaging Methods
Breast screening involves the use of advanced imaging techniques, which can be combined based on individual needs:
- Digital mammography (including low-dose technology)
- High-resolution breast ultrasound
- Additional imaging depending on individual risk profile
The combination of these methods provides a high level of diagnostic accuracy.
Individual Risk Assessment
Breast screening is tailored to each patient’s individual risk profile.
Screening is particularly recommended in cases of:
- Family history of breast cancer
- Hormonal risk factors
- Dense breast tissue
- Previous abnormalities or breast disease
Depending on the level of risk, more frequent or advanced imaging may be appropriate.
Detection of Even the Smallest Changes
Modern imaging techniques allow the detection of very early changes:
- Microcalcifications as early indicators of potential malignancy
- Small, non-palpable lesions
- Early-stage tumors
These findings are often only detectable through imaging, long before clinical symptoms appear.
