This paid piece is sponsored by Avera.
Ever wonder how big (or small) of a lump a yearly mammogram can detect? Or how that compares to a lump you find by accident?
This infographic answers these questions, and provides valuable information if you ever wonder if that yearly mammogram can be skipped.
Early detection can make all the difference – that’s why it’s important to work with your primary care provider and stick to a plan for recommended breast screenings starting at age 40.
