#Early detection can save lives.

2025/6/28 Edited to

Early detection of breast cancer is critical, as studies show that one in eight women will be diagnosed during their lifetime. Participating in mobile mammogram screenings can save lives by ensuring timely diagnosis and treatment. Scheduled for July 17, 2025, the Invision Diagnostics Mobile Mammogram Screening Event will be held from 10 AM to 2 PM, offering no-cost mammograms for women. Interested individuals can register by calling 843-598-9402 for more details. This initiative is just one of the many community efforts aimed at facilitating access to healthcare. Additionally, community events like the Senior Expo, also on July 17, are vital as they connect seniors with local businesses and resources. Such gatherings provide essential support for seniors aged 55 and above, enhancing their quality of life. These events often include entertainment, food, and opportunities to ask questions to local officials like probate judges, providing a platform for community engagement. By prioritizing early detection and community outreach, women and seniors alike can access crucial health resources, contribute to their well-being, and promote a healthier community overall. Don't miss out on these valuable opportunities—mark your calendars!

A dermatologist points to a graphic illustrating the ABCDE rule for melanoma detection, showing examples of moles for Asymmetry, Border, Color, Diameter, and Evolving, with the title "5 letters could save your life. Know the warning signs of melanoma."

This image explains "Asymmetry" in moles, showing a round, regular mole versus an irregular mole where one half doesn't match the other, indicating a warning sign.

This image explains "Border" in moles, contrasting a regular mole with smooth, defined edges against irregular moles with ragged, notched, or blurred borders, which are warning signs.

If you think all moles are harmless, you might be missing early signs of melanoma not because it’s obvious, but because it often isn’t. Melanoma can start as subtle changes in shape, color, or size. That’s why dermatologists use the ABCDE rule to spot warning signs early. What many don’t real
