But what is breast cancer in fact? Every month, a woman’s breasts pass through a series of changes associated with the period, changes that include the possibility that a nodule may appear. Although most of these inflammations are temporary and not cancerous, any new nodule that may appear has to be examined by a specialist as soon as possible.
There are may types of breast cancer if we talk about their development in time. While some forms require years to spread outside the breast, some spread with incredible speed.
Male patients can also present breast cancer, but this form of cancer is very rare, somewhere around 0.5% of all the breast cancer cases. In case of women, breast cancer is the most frequent type of cancer and the second when it comes to the death count, after the lung cancer.
Fortunately, breast cancer can be treated if it’s detected in an early stage of development. Tumors can be usually treated with success and the patient can have a normal life for at least 5 years .
Breast cancer test centers are spread all over the world. They use cutting edge technologies and highly trained professionals to consult patients and, in case of cancer to provide them with accurate and efficient treatments.
These diagnosis and treatment centers offer the patients the possibility of fast and efficient consultations, with every case is discussed apart from the others. “This is why 25% of our 20 000 patients come to our clinic regularly for consultation” said Ioan Stoian, the founder of the first breast cancer test center in Romania, Gynecoland.
