Did you know invasive lobular carcinoma can be difficult to see on mammograms?
Invasive lobular carcinoma is the second most common type of breast cancer, but it can be hard to see on mammograms.
Why? Because the cancer cells spread through the breast tissue, so they don’t always form a lump the same way other cancers do.
We did an episode on invasive lobular carcinoma in our podcast series ‘Upfront about breast cancer’. Surgical oncologist and specialist breast surgeon Professor Bruce Mann broke down all the information about it including how artificial intelligence and computer algorithms can be used in diagnosis - Listen via the link Invasive lobular carcinoma (bcna.org.au)
