Before any treatments can begin, doctors will have to perform diagnosis to be certain the cancer is present. Some of the tests performed by doctor may include mammography and ultrasound. If cancer is detected in the breast tissues, further testing is required to determine the stages of the cancer. Breast cancer treatments may include chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy and surgery.
The types of treatment used depend on the stages of the cancer. Early stage of cancer can be treated with surgery alone or it may involve a combination of treatments such as chemotherapy after surgery. Cancer that has progressed to later stage always involves a combination of treatments to treat the disease that may have spread to other part of the body.
