Abstract

The point is that the incidence of cancer diseases is increasing. Using a specially developed method for the early diagnosis of benign and malignant diseases of the mammary gland, 3059 women have been examined. A great number of the examined women live in contaminated with radionuclides areas. The rough statistic rate for
100 000 people (data for Russia) was found to be exceeded by an average.

Key words
Mammary gland, cancer, ultrasound diagnosis, Chernobyl.
