Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer and a leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide. With over 2 million new cases diagnosed annually, it represents more than 20% of female cancers. At Gediz Health, we provide world-class diagnostic and treatment services, prioritizing your health and well-being every step of the way.
Understanding Breast Cancer Risks
Early detection is key to successful treatment. Breast cancer can develop due to various risk factors, including:
- Age over 50
- Early menstruation (before 12) or late menopause (after 55)
- Never giving birth or not breastfeeding
- Giving birth after the age of 35
- Family history of breast cancer or BRCA1/BRCA2 gene mutations
- Long-term hormone therapy or contraceptive use
- Previous radiation therapy to the chest area
By identifying your risk factors, we can develop personalized strategies for prevention and early diagnosis.
Advanced Diagnostic Techniques
At Gediz Health, we utilize state-of-the-art imaging methods for breast cancer diagnosis:
- Mammography: The gold standard for early detection.
- Breast Ultrasound: An effective tool for detailed imaging.
- Breast MRI: Used in complex cases to complement mammography and ultrasound.
We also offer minimally invasive biopsy techniques, including fine needle aspiration (FNAB), core needle biopsy (CNB), and vacuum-assisted biopsy (VAB), to ensure accurate diagnosis with minimal discomfort.
Personalized Breast Cancer Treatment Plans
Every breast cancer case is unique, and so is our approach. Using the TNM staging system (Tumor, Node, Metastasis), we create a customized treatment plan that may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or a combination of these methods.
For surgical treatments, we prioritize breast-conserving surgery (BCS) or oncoplastic breast surgery whenever possible. These advanced techniques not only remove the tumor but also maintain the natural appearance of the breast, supporting physical and emotional recovery.
