A member asked:

Anybody have any other alternatives for breast cancer screening?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

What do you: Mean by alternatives? The commonly accepted screening tools are mammography with supplementation by ultrasound. Sometimes ultrasound alone is used in young women as a first line tool. Mri can be a very helpful evaluating exam in patients with dense/complex breast tissue or increased risk because of genetic markers or family history.
