Two Simple Tests
A mammogram and a cervical cancer screening can detect cancer in early treatable stages.What is a mammogram?
A mammogram is an X-ray picture of the breasts. Mammograms detect tumors that cannot be found by a breast exam. A mammogram is slightly uncomfortable for some women... but it can save your life!What is a Pap test?
A Pap test is a cervical screening performed in your doctor’s office. A small piece of your cervical tissue is taken during an internal exam and is tested to see if there is anything unusual about the cells in the tissue.
