    I have dense breasts, and my cancer was hidden on early mammograms. Please help others find their cancers early!

    Incomplete information is insufficient information in order to make informed decisions. Incomplete information is dangerous information.

    A mammogram missed my palpable tumor. Alternate screening like ultrasounds should be recommended as mandated advice to women with dense breasts. This will save thousands of lives. The newer ultrasound machines with their elasticity capacity will also eliminate unnecessary biopsies.

    I was told many years ago that I had dense breasts but not what the implications of that were. Now I am nervous because I have been getting regular mammograms but apparently that's not enough.

    I experienced this! I had breast cancer that the mammogram did not pick up. It is important that a Congressional hearing is held.

    ultrasound should be considered a routine follow up for those women with dense breast tissue.
