Breast Cancer Awareness SRIOR

Consciência pode prevenir cancro da mama

Awareness is the key to make lifestyle changes, when it comes to breast cancer (and numerous other medical conditions). Most people although aware of breast cancer and its effects, generally forget to take steps to detect the disease in its early stage and encourage others to do the same.

Mobile apps play a huge role in teaching women to be aware of breast self-examinations, practice other early detection & screening techniques, as well as how to weigh the different breast cancer treatment options.

If you, a family member or friend has been diagnosed with breast cancer, you will want to learn as much as you can about this treatable disease.

October being Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Sree Ramakrishna Institute of Oncology (SRIOR) have launched a patient friendly and informative android application.

SRIOR– An innovative initiator of Breast Cancer awareness APP which will draw global attention of general public as well as breast cancer patients to provide an insight into awareness and its preventive tips.
