Screening Methods and Tests for Breast Lumps
Most breast lumps and nipple problems are benign (not cancerous). To be sure a lump or rash is harmless, there are some tests to check it out.
Pap Test for Breast Cancer - The HALO Test
Cells in your nipple aspirate fluid can reveal your risk level for developing breast cancer. The HALO Breast Pap Test is a simple, comfortable test that collects your nipple aspirate fluid for a lab exam. Having abnormal cells in your nipple aspirate fluid helps determine your risk for breast cancer, long before it develops.

Ductal Lavage Screening for Pre-Cancerous and Cancerous Breast Cells
Ductal Lavage has been referred to as the "Pap smear for the breast." With a very tiny tube, fluid can be sampled from the breast ducts, and examined under a microscope or screened at the molecular level for cancer cells.

Elastography for Breast Cancer Detection
Elastography is a new technology for imaging breast tissue, and it may be better than mammography, ultrasounds, and MRIs at distinguishing between benign and cancerous areas. Elastograms can distinguish a cancerous lump, without the need for a biopsy.
