In Switzerland, about 6,600 women and 60 men are diagnosed with breast cancer every year and around 1,400 women die from it each year. The rate of disease increases with age. Nevertheless, one in five women is younger than 50 at the time of diagnosis. Mammography is the most important examination for the early detection of breast cancer. It can reveal a tumor before it can be felt or causes any symptoms. Medical societies and the Cancer League recommend that women aged 50 and over have a mammogram every two years. Regular self-examination of the breasts also helps women become more familiar with their bodies and notice any changes that should be checked by a doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>The earlier breast cancer is detected and treated, the better the chances of cure. <\/strong><\/strong>That\u2019s the message we want to get across to everyone!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>About our clinical research in Oncology<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that MSD operates one of the world&#8217;s largest and fastest growing clinical research programs in oncology?
