Breast cancer market is comprised of two segments – diagnostic and therapy. The key drivers of breast cancer market are aging population, obesity and family history among others.
The stages of breast cancer are of critical importance and decide the treatment method and the extent to which it can be cured. Mammography is believed to find 85% to 90% of breast cancers in women over 50, and can discover a lesion one to four years before a lump can be felt. In case of patients with dense breast tissue, breast implants or patients who are breastfeeding, mammography cannot produce clear images and therefore, in such cases, ultrasound or MRI is recommended. Biopsy is used for the diagnosis of breast cancer once a lesion is detected in screening. For treatment of breast cancer, surgery is used first and then drugs or radiation therapy or both are used.

Walk in Style for Ovarian Cancer Research
July 17, 2010: Walk for the Cure! FancyScrubs.com announces for every pair of clogs purchased between today and September 20, 2010, $10 per pair will be donated to the GirlyGirlParts (Pre-screening Awareness Required To Silence Ovarian Cancer) 2nd Annual 5K run/walk being on September 25, 2010 Town Neck Beach in Sandwich, MA.
The event is open to the public and is designed to help raise awareness and research funds for a reliable early screening test for ovarian cancer.
Jill Di-Tommaso and Laura Smith, both Sandwich residents founded Girlygirl P.A.R.T.S in 2009. The women were moved to create the organization after Di-Tommaso, who is in her early 40′s, was diagnosed with ovarian cancer after seeing her doctor for a routine visit in February, 2008. “My case illustrates how ovarian cancer symptoms are truly ‘silent’ and emphasizes the need for a reliable screening test,” explained Jill.
All proceeds from the 5K Run/Walk will go directly to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute specifically for ovarian cancer pre-screening research.
The success of the foundation’s first event underscores the overwhelming need for public events in support of ovarian cancer awareness and research. There are only 119 organizations nationwide dedicated to ovarian cancer while there are 1,700 organizations nationwide dedicated to breast cancer awareness and fundraising. Approximately 26,000 new cases of ovarian cancer each year, among those, roughly 16,000 will die of the disease. September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month.
