More Than A Mammo Programme

BREAST CANCER is the most common cancer in Malaysia.

MAMMOGRAMS are the most reliable way to detect early breast cancer.

This is a Malaysian study to determine the impact of genes, lifestyle and breast density on breast cancer.

We are recruiting 1000 Malaysian women to participate in this study.

This programme is supported by Sime Darby Medical Centre Subang Jaya (SDMCSJ) and Cancer Research Initiatives Foundation (CARIF). Qualifying participants can now have a mammogram at only RM50.

Am I eligible to participate?

In order to participate in this programme:

be 40 years of age or older*.
