OBJECTIVE: To review the history, current status, and future trends related to breast cancer screening.DATA SOURCES: Peer-reviewed articles, web sites, and textbooks.CONCLUSION: Breast cancer remains a complex, heterogeneous disease. Serial screening with mammography is the most effective method to detect early stage disease and decrease mortality. Although politics and economics may inhibit organized mammography screening programs in many countries, the judicious use of proficient clinical and self-breast examination can also identify small tumors leading to reduced morbidity.
