breast cancer awareness Greece

Women who are eligible for the preventative mammography examination are aged between 45 and 74 and have a Social Security Number (AMKA).

In Greece, approximately 7,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer each year, with it being the most common form of cancer in women.

This initiative targets 1.4 million women and provides free digital mammography, free ultrasound, and free consultations with doctors.

The annual ‘Greece Race for the Cure’ raising funds for breast cancer research is fully booked with two runs set for Sunday, Sept. 29.
