Every October is recognised as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, also known as Pink Ribbon Month. In line with the World Health Organization’s (WHO) call to action, FV Hospital stands united in spreading the message: early detection and prevention are the most effective ways to defeat breast cancer.
Breast cancer is currently the most common cancer affecting women. Yet when detected and treated early, it has a cure rate of over 90%. Building awareness and taking timely action are among the strongest defences to protect your health and the wellbeing of your loved ones.
This year’s theme, “Each Story is Unique, Every Journey Matters,” honours the millions of lives affected by breast cancer and reaffirms the global commitment to equitable access to care and improved outcomes for all. Behind every diagnosis is a personal story — one of courage, resilience, and hope. This theme reminds us that breast cancer impacts each woman and her family differently, and every journey deserves compassion, dignity, and support.

START EARLY: FV RECOMMENDS BREAST SCREENING FROM AGE 25
Screening helps detect breast cancer at an early stage, when treatment is simpler, more effective, and the chance of recovery is significantly higher. Early detection not only prevents severe complications but also reduces the physical and emotional toll on patients and their families. It supports better quality of life, enabling individuals to continue pursuing their goals and cherishing meaningful moments with their loved ones.
FV Hospital is proud to provide comprehensive breast care services — from early screening and precise diagnosis to advanced, multimodal treatment.
With a team of specialists boasting over 20 years of experience in breast disease management, and access to state-of-the-art medical equipment, FV Hospital provides precise diagnostic solutions to detect early signs of abnormalities.
Our screening services include:
- Clinical examination and consultation: A thorough physical assessment with personalised advice based on your health condition.
- Digital mammography: A highly effective imaging method for detecting small tumours, including those that cannot yet be felt.
- Breast ultrasound: Offers detailed evaluation, particularly useful for women with dense breast tissue.
- Breast MRI: Provides highly detailed and accurate imaging, often recommended for complex or high-risk cases.
- Needle biopsy: Performed when abnormalities are found to determine the nature of the lesion.
FV strictly follows the guidelines of the American Cancer Society, ensuring that every screening and test is medically appropriate — avoiding unnecessary interventions.
