Is the Breast Cancer Invasive

Is the Breast Cancer Invasive?

The single most important fact about any breast cancer is whether it has grown beyond the milk ducts or lobules of the breast where it first started.

Normal Cells

Non-invasive Cells

Non-invasive cancers stay within the milk ducts or milk lobules in the breast. They do not grow into or invade normal tissues within or beyond the breast. These are sometimes called in situ or pre-cancers.

Invasive Cells

If the cancer has grown beyond where it started, it is called invasive. Most cancers are invasive. Sometimes cancer cells can also spread to other parts of the body through the blood or lymph system. You may see these through description of cancer in your report.
