ROBERTS, Robin, 1960-; BREAST disease diagnosis; CYSTS (Pathology); ULTRASONIC imaging; TRANSVAGINAL ultrasonography; OVARIAN cancer

An interview with ABC's "Good Morning America" co-anchor Robin Roberts is presented. When asked about her experience of finding a lump in her breast through a self-exam, she relates that she was able to find the lump because she felt different about it though the mammogram she had did not reveal the tumor. She says that for younger women who have dense breast tissue, an ultrasound is a necessary screening tool. She relates that she is getting transvaginal sonograms to screen her for ovarian cancer tumors.
