Description
Breast cancer. Coloured magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of a section through the breasts of a 58-year-old female patient, showing a malignant (cancerous) adenocarcinoma (tumour, far right) and tissue damage in the left breast. Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. It can be treated by excision of the tumour if it is caught early. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are often used as well as surgery to prevent the tumour from regrowing.
