A routine breast examination is advised for all women to identify any suspicious lumps so that breast cancer detection is made as early as possible. Mammography is the most common first line screening tool for breast cancer. But in some cases, mammography may miss some abnormalities, especially if the womans breast tissue is dense. Sometimes dense breast tissue and cancers may appear similar in mammography.So, a lump that may be felt manually may appear as normal breast tissue when screened through mammography which may then lead to a biopsy to confirm cancer. But now, even the cancerous tissue that mammography misses can be identified by a new diagnostic technique called breast specific gamma imaging. This is different from mammography, sonography or MRI. The imaging in breast specific gamma imaging is not anatomical, but functional. It is also much superior to traditional screening methods because gamma imaging picks up cells that are beginning to act cancerous even before the abnormality becomes advanced enough to be visible on a mammogram or a sonogram. Even in women who are diagnosed with Breast Cancer using other methods, breast specific gamma imaging may prove beneficial...more

If you are not happy with the appearance of your breasts, you do not necessarily need implants. Often, a breast lift can provide great results, making your chest look shapelier and sometimes even larger than before. This is especially important to women who are older, have had children, or lost a lot of weight recently. One of the most popular types of modern augmentation surgery, or mastopexy, is the scarless kind.During the scarless breast lift, several small incisions are made in the area so that the scarring is much less noticeable than with regular surgery, if at all. Any scars that do remain are usually on the areola, so they cannot be seen when you are in a bathing suit. In most cases, the surgeon then inserts a tiny camera into one of the incisions, called an endoscope. The entire surgery can then be watched on camera as it happens, which is why larger incisions do not need to be made.Usually, the surgeon will then use an opening under the armpit to separate breast tissue from muscle. Some of the fatty tissue will then be removed, and the remaining tissue will be stitched together. Finally, the breasts are put into the desired position, usually a little higher than they...more
