In a commendable effort to promote women’s health and raise awareness about breast cancer, the Mohit Gupta Foundation organized a free mammography screening camp in collaboration with Sohana Hospital, Mohali.
This initiative aimed to make early detection and prevention of breast cancer accessible to all women, irrespective of their socio-economic backgrounds.
The camp drew attention to the importance of regular breast cancer screenings, emphasizing the role of early diagnosis in saving lives.
Breast Cancer: A Growing Global Concern
Breast cancer is a growing concern globally, and India is no exception. It is the most common cancer among Indian women, with late-stage diagnoses contributing to high mortality rates.
However, regular mammography screenings can help detect breast cancer in its early stages when treatment is more effective. Unfortunately, limited access to healthcare facilities and financial constraints have prevented many women from undergoing these vital screenings.
The free mammography screening camp organized by the Mohit Gupta Foundation and Sohana Hospital was a step toward addressing these issues. It welcomed women from various walks of life, providing them with the opportunity to receive a comprehensive checkup, including mammograms, free of cost.
The camp’s professional medical staff, including radiologists and oncologists, offered their services, ensuring that women received accurate results and guidance on the spot.
Moreover, the camp provided an environment that encouraged women to share their experiences and concerns. This support network was an essential part of the initiative, as it allowed women to learn about breast health, risk factors, and self-examination techniques.
Education and awareness are key components in the fight against breast cancer, as they empower women to take control of their health and make informed decisions.
Mohit Gupta Foundation, named after the late philanthropist and visionary Mohit Gupta, has been at the forefront of various initiatives aimed at improving healthcare access and education.
Collaborating with Sohana Hospital, a well-established healthcare institution known for its expertise in cancer care, reinforced the credibility and effectiveness of the camp.
