6How to Diagnose Stage 0 Breast Cancer
If you notice any changes in the breasts, especially a lump, make sure to inform your doctor immediately. They will ask you certain questions about your medical history, family history of breast cancer, and other symptoms. Stage 0 breast cancer is typically detected during an X-ray of the breasts called a mammogram screening. If the results are suspicious, other imaging tests may be done to verify the presence of cancerous cells. Another diagnostic option is a biopsy, which gets a tissue sample for further analysis in the lab. The findings can help find out whether abnormal cells are present and whether they would be aggressive or invasive. [6]
