Stages of Breast Cancer
Description
This template was adapted from the original submission. Edits were made to enhance scientific accuracy, optimal usability and/or to meet industry-leading design standards for science communication.
Breast cancer stages are expressed as a number on a scale of 0 through IV based on size, localization and invasiveness, with stage 0 describing localized and non-invasive cancers and stage IV describing invasive cancers that have spread outside the breast to other parts of the body. Organ-specific metastasis, namely to the brain, lungs, liver, and bones, is characteristic of metastatic breast cancers.
