Tests play a huge role in breast cancer treatment. Tests can show what kind of breast cancer you have, how large a tumor is, where it’s located, how quickly it’s growing, how far it has spread and whether a genetic
mutation
may have caused it.
Much of this information is contained in your pathology report, a document that you and your healthcare providers use to learn more about the cancer, and to plan your treatment.
