Breast Cancer Awareness Month: early detection saves lives

Wendy Elvis, 633rd Surgical Operations Squadron lead mammography technician, shows what is seen during a breast biopsy to Melissa McRae, 633rd Surgical Operations Squadron command secretary, at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Va., Oct. 17, 2016. JBLE’s Women’s Health Clinics and Mammography Departments recommend women avoid putting off mammograms and regular women’s health appointments because early detection is the best way to increase a patient’s survival rate if they are diagnosed with breast cancer.
