Next month marks the start of breast cancer awareness month. One in eight women in the U.S. will develop breast cancer in her lifetime, and the majority of these women do not have a family history. That's why it's especially important make mammogram screenings part of your annual breast care routine. Dr. Kenny Sam, a breast and interventional radiologist, affiliated with Memorial Hermann Health System shares more information on these important screenings and who should be getting them.
