Breast Cancer Information



Quebec Breast Cancer Foundation
Given that 6,200 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012, it is important for women to observe their breasts on a regular basis to get to know them well and watch for changes.  Visit the website.

Breast cancer starts in the cells of the breast. The breast tissue covers an area larger than just the breast. It extends up to the collarbone and from the armpit across to the breastbone in the centre of the chest. The breasts sit on the chest muscles that cover the ribs. Each breast is made of glands, ducts (thin tubes) and fatty tissue.  Visit the website.
