ESPEvery year on the third Friday in October, National Mammography Day joins in National Breast Cancer Awareness Month to remind all women their best defense is early detection.
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States according to the CDC. That's why a mammogram can detect a problem before there is any outward physical sign. The CDC statistics also report that breast cancer is the most common form of cancer diagnosed among women. Screenings and breast exams are a part of the early detection process. #NationalMammographyDay
