With a mammogram - as great as they are, and they do save a lot of lives - if you have very dense breasts, it really can't see if there is something in there.

More than 90% of cancers are curable at stage one - look for them, look for them, look for them.
Another immigration reform involves new screening tests for all applicants that include - and this is so important, especially if you get the right people, and we will get the right people - an ideological certification to make sure that those we are admitting to our country share our values and love our people!
I encourage all men - and all women who love their men - to make sure to get out every year, from the age of 50 on, and have PSA and DRE tests. With early detection, you can have an early cure.
