Mammogram screenings don't reduce cancer death rates, study finds
Annual mammography screenings help uncover cases of breast cancer, but they do not reduce the number of cancer deaths, according to a study of nearly 90,000 Canadian women. Yearly mammography screenings for women ages 40 to 59 do not reduce breast cancer deaths, even though they make a diagnosis of illness more likely, according to a long-term study of nearly 90,000 Canadian women.
