title: Take time for a mammogram.
abstract: If you're a woman over 40 and you can't remember the last time you had a mammogram, you may be overdue. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) estimates that 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some time in their lives. But the good news is that mammograms--X-ray pictures of the breast--can detect breast cancer early, when it's most treatable.
