KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama) -- Hasil rawatan akan lebih positif sekiranya kanser payudara dapat dikesan lebih awal.

Malangnya, menurut Persatuan Kanser Kebangsaan Malaysia (NCSM), 43 peratus kes kanser payudara hanya dikesan apabila ia sudah mencapai peringkat akhir, iaitu ketiga dan keempat.

“This is unfortunate because breast cancer is highly treatable if detected early.

“We urge our women to be aware and be proactive in seeking medical advice if they find any abnormalities (on their breast),” NCSM medical director Dr M. Murallitharan told Bernama recently.
