Breast Cancer Diagnosis By Medicines – Explained
by Dr. Pratik Patil
Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer found in women. Early diagnosis is
very important for better results in treatment.
How is Breast Cancer Diagnosed?
Diagnosis begins with:
● Breast self-examination
● Clinical breast examination
● Mammography (X-ray of the breast)
● Ultrasound
● MRI
● Biopsy (to confirm if the tumor is cancerous)
After confirming the diagnosis, doctors check the stage and type of cancer.
Role of Medicines in Breast Cancer
Medicines play a big role in both early and advanced stages. The goal is to:
● Kill cancer cells
● Stop them from spreading
● Prevent cancer from coming back
These medicines are given as:
● Chemotherapy – Destroys fast-growing cancer cells.
● Hormonal Therapy – For hormone receptor-positive cancers.
● Targeted Therapy – Targets specific cancer proteins.
● Immunotherapy – Boosts the body's immune system to fight cancer.
