Guidelines from the American Cancer Society include
annual mammograms for low risk women starting at the
age of 45 and
continuing through the age of 54. At 55, women can
continue annual mammography or change to every 2
years. MRI and
ultrasound are done for abnormal findings or for high risk
women. Breast self-awareness is important so women can
detect changes
early. Current data shows that SBE is not a valuable
screening tool. Asymptomatic women 40 and older should
have a clinical
breast exam annually.
After a breast examination, the nurse is documenting
assessment findings that indicate possible breast cancer.

axillary nodes are not abnormal assessment findings that
may indicate breast cancer.
