Breast cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed forms of cancer in the U.S., with nearly one out of eight women being diagnosed at some point in their lives. Nearly 65 percent of breast cancer cases are diagnosed before it spreads – greatly increasing the outlook for patients. But what about cases of metastatic breast cancer, where the disease has begun to spread?

Dr. Jackson talks about advances in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer, as well as what women need to know about the warning signs and the importance of regular screenings.
