The Effect of Breast Cancer Screening is Declining

July 9, 2022 By Namita Nayyar (WF Team)

Screening for breast cancer has a cost. This is shown by a Danish/Norwegian study that analysed 10,580 breast cancer deaths among Norwegian women aged 50 to 75 years. "The beneficial effect of screening is currently declining because the treatment of cancer is improving. Over the last 25 years, the mortality rate for breast cancer has been virtually halved," says Henrik … [Read more...]

Critical process for how breast cancer spreads in bones

Critical process for how breast cancer spreads in bones

November 11, 2019 By Namita Nayyar (WF Team)

Once breast cancer spreads to bone, treatment becomes nearly impossible. Breast cancer cells can lie dormant in the bone, often undetectable and able to escape typical treatments. Unfortunately, these dormant cells can awaken at any time to generate tumors. All of this combined makes it difficult to understand how the cells proliferate and how to stop them from doing … [Read more...]
