When a woman reports
any abnormality of her breast
to her doctor, he may take a
kind of X-ray picture of her
breast using one of the modern
techniques called “mammogra-
phy” or “xerography”, or he
may use “thermography” which
is not an X-ray but measures

the heat output of the breast,

Or he may simply perform
a biopsy which involves the
removal of tissue from the area.

But remember, most lumps
are not serious. Some are cysts
