A breast
cancer glossary is just a dictionary that includes common terms
found in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment.
Words
that may be unfamiliar can make dealing with a biopsy or treatment
decisions harder than they have to be. The definitions here should
help you make sense out of your doctor's recommendations or your
pathology report.
Use
the letter codes to see terms that begin with that letter or type
the word you're looking for in the search box to look through the
glossary and the rest of the site for the word you need help understanding.
This
may make a breast cancer pathology report a little easier to understand
so you'll know what your diagnosis and options are.
If
you have any unanswered questions, make sure to write them down
to ask your doctor or a member of your treatment team the next time
you have an appointment.
