Every woman carries something precious within her. Her health, her strength, her story, and the life she continues to build.<\/p>\n
This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, King\u2019s College Hospital Dubai is encouraging women to protect what\u2019s precious through Within Her<\/strong>, a breast awareness campaign centered on knowing your body, recognizing changes, and making breast screening part of looking after your health.<\/p>\n The shell and the pearl at the center of the campaign tell that story; the shell stands for protection, strength, and the care that surrounds a woman, while the pearl stands for what is precious within her\u2014namely her health, her life, her individuality, and her future.<\/p>\n Around 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer during their lifetime<\/strong>. Breast cancer does not always cause noticeable symptoms in its early stages, which is why breast awareness and appropriate screening matter.<\/p>\n Know it. Care for it. Protect it.<\/strong><\/p>\n Breast cancer develops when abnormal cells in the breast begin to grow and multiply uncontrollably. There are different types of breast cancer, and the way the condition develops and is treated can vary from one woman to another.<\/p>\n While breast cancer is more common as women get older, it can affect younger women too. Having certain risk factors may increase your likelihood of developing the disease, but breast cancer can also occur in women without an obvious increased risk.<\/p>\n This is why knowing what is normal for your breasts and following recommended breast screening guidance are important parts of looking after your health.<\/p>\n Breast cancer can develop before you notice or feel anything unusual.<\/p>\n A mammogram is an X-ray examination of the breasts that can identify changes that may be too small to see or feel. Detecting breast cancer at an earlier stage can provide more treatment options and may improve treatment outcomes.<\/p>\n King\u2019s College Hospital Dubai offers AI-supported mammography<\/strong>, combining mammogram imaging with artificial intelligence technology to support radiologists in reviewing breast images.<\/p>\n As part of the Within Her<\/strong> Breast Cancer Awareness Month campaign, AI Mammography Screening is available for:<\/p>\n Book your breast screening today.<\/strong><\/p>\n AI mammography uses artificial intelligence alongside the expertise of specialist radiologists to analyze mammogram images.<\/p>\n This technology can point out areas that could need a closer look, giving extra support during image checks. The clinical team still makes the final decisions and recommendations.<\/p>\n AI does not replace the radiologist. Instead, it is another tool that can support breast cancer screening and help specialists assess breast images carefully.<\/p>\n How often you should have breast screening depends on factors such as your age, personal medical history, family history, and individual breast cancer risk.<\/p>\n Some women may also need screening or assessment earlier than others, particularly if they have a strong family history of breast or ovarian cancer or other known risk factors.<\/p>\n If you are unsure whether you should have a mammogram, speak with your doctor about the screening schedule that is appropriate for you.<\/p>\n Screening is intended for women without symptoms. If you have noticed a change in your breast, you should speak with a doctor rather than waiting for your next routine mammogram.<\/p>\n Being breast aware does not mean looking for cancer every day. It simply means becoming familiar with how your breasts normally look and feel so you are more likely to recognize a change.<\/p>\n Speak with a doctor if you notice:<\/p>\n Many breast changes are not cancer. However, a new or unexplained change should always be assessed.<\/p>\n Breast cancer can affect any woman, but certain factors can increase risk. These include getting older, having a personal or family history of breast cancer, carrying certain inherited genetic changes, previous radiation exposure to the chest, and some hormonal and reproductive factors.<\/p>\n Having one or more risk factors does not mean you will develop breast cancer. Equally, having no known risk factors does not mean you cannot develop it.<\/p>\n Your doctor can help you understand your individual risk and whether you may benefit from a different screening approach.<\/p>\n Breast health can involve more than a single test. When further assessment is needed, access to experienced breast specialists, radiologists, imaging, and other clinical services can help women move from screening to diagnosis and appropriate care.<\/p>\n At King\u2019s College Hospital Dubai, breast care is centered on each woman and her individual needs, whether she is attending for routine breast screening, investigating a change, or requiring further care.<\/p>\n The aim of Within Her<\/strong> is to make that first step easier: know your breasts, care for your health, and protect what is precious.<\/p>\n To book your AI Mammography Screening for AED 350<\/strong> at King\u2019s College Hospital Dubai, call +971 800 7777<\/strong>, complete the online appointment form, or book through the KingsHub App<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Your health is part of everything you carry within you: the life you have built, the people you love, the plans you have made, and the future still ahead.<\/p>\n This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, make a promise to take care of yourself.<\/p>\n Know it.
