The prospect of developing cancer is a frightening one. Sadly, this fear is leading many to undergo dangerous and harmful cancer screenings that, ironically, can cause the very diseases patients hope to avoid.
A groundbreaking study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine has revealed a significant preference among women in their 40s to delay mammography screening when provided with comprehensive information about its benefits and risks.
