You can have your breast health checked this Saturday at one of Yekaterinburg's shopping malls.
A preventive event for women with the participation of mammologists from the Sverdlovsk Regional Oncology Dispensary will take place on December 6 at the Veer Mall shopping center in Yekaterinburg, the Sverdlovsk Region Department of Information Policy reports.
Women under 40 will have the opportunity to have an ultrasound of the breasts. Those over 40 will be able to check their breast health with a mammogram.
"Since the beginning of 2025, 277,000 women in the Sverdlovsk region have already undergone mammography as part of medical screening. Thanks to this, about 490 cases of breast cancer have been detected, 78.6% of which were diagnosed at early stages," the region's information policy department said.
"I urge all women to have a mammogram annually, and I have one myself every year. It is important to remember that a simple examination saves many lives, helping to detect tumors at early, asymptomatic stages and treat them as effectively as possible," says Deputy Governor — Minister of Health of the Sverdlovsk Region Tatyana Savinova.
