Doctors say they are diagnosing more young women with breast cancer.
Experts are revising guidance on when women should get screened for breast cancer. As CBS2's Nick Caloway reports, the change in recommendations could save countless lives.
Breast cancer screenings should be done every other year beginning at age 40, according to draft guidance issued Tuesday by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force.
