Breast cancer is currently the most diagnosed cancer among women worldwide, and it is also the leading cause of death among female cancer patients. According to the research report released by the World Health Organization (WHO) International Agency for Research on Cancer (International Agency for Research on Cancer) in 2021, the number of new cases of breast cancer in the world in 2020 will reach 2.26 million, surpassing lung cancer and becoming the largest cancer in the world no. 1 cancer.
Early breast cancer usually does not have obvious typical signs or symptoms, and it is not easy to attract attention, but when abnormalities are found, it is usually already in the middle and late stages. According to surveys, 80% of breast cancer patients are diagnosed with breast cancer due to the discovery of breast lumps, which is too late, reflecting that we should pay close attention to breast changes and prevent breast cancer early.
In response to the current severe breast cancer situation in the world, the WHO has proposed the goal of “decreasing the global breast cancer mortality rate by 2.5% per year”. To achieve this goal, in addition to “comprehensive breast cancer management”, “Early detection” is the most important strategy.
Home used non-invasive digital breast monitoring system is a simple and reliable breast cancer screening method. Women of any age should perform a self-examination with the system once a month to detect and treat breast cancer early and reduce mortality.
