Ms. Pratibha Togattiwar, Dr Mrs Nilima R Bhore

Abstract :

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death due to cancers among women particularly at an early age. Even today the word ‘cancer’ creates an emotional turmoil in spite of variety of treatment modalities. This is mainly due to the serious nature of the disease and non-availability of perfect treatment yet. Breast self-examination has led to early detection of cancer east cases since 1981. However, the technique is still a novelty to many women. This article takes into account the different modalities used by the investigators world over to propagate the technique and their effectiveness in creating awareness among masses regarding east self-examination as the cheapest and easily available, affordable, screening tool for the early detection of east cancer.
