Welcome to Cancer Questions with Dana-Farber. Today's cancer question is: How and when should women get screened for breast cancer? In this episode, Harold Burstein, MD, PhD, a breast oncologist at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, highlights breast cancer screening recommendations. When to get screened: The American Cancer Society advises annual screening mammograms starting at around age 40-70. Women with higher risk factors should consider additional imaging, like an MRI, typically every year or two. Why screen? Mammography has significantly reduced breast cancer mortality globally.
