What is a Breast Examination & Screening?

Breast examinations and screenings involve clinical and imaging tests to check for lumps, changes in breast tissue, or other abnormalities. These include:

• Self-Breast Examination (SBE): A self-check for lumps or changes in breast shape.
• Clinical Breast Examination (CBE): A doctor examines the breasts for abnormalities.
• Mammography: A low-dose X-ray to detect breast cancer early.
• Ultrasound & MRI: Used when further evaluation is needed, especially for dense breast tissue.
