October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

From the American College of Radiology:

Thanks to radiology services – like mammograms and MRIs – physicians are able to diagnose many medical conditions and diseases, like breast cancer, earlier, improving overall rates of success for treatment. In fact, 89% of women believe a mammogram will detect a lump before they can feel it. However, if the cuts under consideration by the Congressional "super committee" are adopted, access to these vital medical services may be limited. That's why we all must tell the Super Committee to protect radiology services – because Radiology Saves Lives. Learn more at www.radiologysaveslives.org.
