Breast cancer affects 1 in 9 Japanese women over their lifetime, making it the most common cancer in women. When detected early, the cure rate exceeds 90%; however, by the time symptoms appear, the cancer has often already progressed. Combining "mammography," which detects calcifications and small lumps, with "breast ultrasound," which is better suited for younger women and those with dense breast tissue, improves overall detection accuracy.
In nationwide, 1538 facilities offer tests related to the early detection of Breast Cancer.
