The most
beautiful picture ever
of a woman's
breasts.
It's a thermogram-a plcture of heat patterns in breast
tissue.
Along with a mammogram (X-ray), it's the most advanced
way to spot trouble before it's felt as a lump.
And that will save lives.
And that's beautiful.
100,000 women this year will be tested at Breast Diagnostic
Centers set up by the American Cancer Society and the
National Cancer Institute.
But we're greedy. We want to protect millions of women.
And men and children, too.
Another major project is looking Into possible causes of
cancer in our environment-our habits, foods, jobs.
We need money for all our cancer research. Please give.,
We want to wipe out cancer in your lifetime.
