Breast Cancer Self Examinations

In this video, an Argentinian charity called Movimiento Ayuda Cáncer de Mama (MACMA) came up with a clever way to sidestep social media’s censorship of female nipples to show women how to perform a breast self-examination. The result is a humorous and memorable tutorial seen by millions of people around the world.

The videos in this series describe breast cancer detection and diagnosis techniques including: mammography, ultrasound, breast biopsy, sentinel lymph node biopsy, and pathology. Lymphedema, a side effect that may occur as a result of techniques used for breast cancer detection, is also discussed in a video. We have also created two videos about medical testing that are important to help patients understand the results of all medical tests.
