The charts of 661 women aged 15 to 39 revealed that almost 50% of teenage patients had had breast screening examinations. Most of the physicians and residents involved began performing and teaching breast examination to patients in their teens. Concerned that it might do more harm than good, the Canadian guidelines do not advocate early screening.
对661名年龄在15至39岁之间的女性的病历分析显示,近50%的青少年患者接受过乳房筛查检查。大多数参与其中的医生和住院医生在患者十几岁时就开始为她们进行乳房检查并开展相关教学。由于担心此举可能弊大于利,加拿大的相关指南不提倡早期筛查。
