Care journey

From a concern to care and support.

Every person’s experience is different. This is a simplified educational overview.

1

Notice

A breast change is noticed or a screening finding needs attention.

2

Consult

A healthcare professional evaluates the concern.

3

Investigate

Imaging or other tests may be recommended.

4

Biopsy

A tissue sample may be examined when needed.

5

Diagnosis

Results help determine whether cancer is present and its characteristics.

6

Plan

The healthcare team discusses appropriate treatment options.

7

Care

Treatment and supportive care are provided according to the individual plan.

8

Follow-up

Ongoing monitoring, survivorship and support may continue after active treatment.

This flow does not diagnose or determine a treatment path. Actual decisions belong to the patient and qualified healthcare team.
