Breast Cancer Post-Op Radiations Raise Risks Of Developing Contralateral Tumors
Breast cancer research for cure, cause and prevention is an on-going struggle for scientists, for the benefit of humanity. Recent Dutch studies and analyses have shown that a young woman who receives radiation for cancer in one breast might develop cancer in the other breast, because of the same radiation. The risk of a woman developing breast cancer in her unaffected breast increases dramatically if said woman has a history of breast cancer in her family.
