Diagnostique imagistique du cancer mammaire in situ

Abstract

The name cancer in situ, refers to a specific diagnosis of cancer. This is a very early type of cancer, which is curable in more than 97% of all women. In situ cancers, when detected and treated early, are rarely life threatening. Non-invasive (or “in situ”) cancers confine themselves to the ducts or lobules and do not spread to the surrounding tissues in the breast or other parts of the body. They can, however, develop into or raise the risk for a more serious, invasive cancer.
