SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States. Mammography screening has been identified as a valuable tool to decrease morbidity and mortality rates from breast cancer. Although the effect of screening with mammography on mortality and morbidity is debatable, it is recommended that mammograms should be continued annually regardless of the age of the woman. Racial disparities in health in the US continue to affect breast cancer screening and early diagnosis even if socioeconomic status is controlled. Arab Muslim and Christian women from different Arab countries may perceive health and screening practices differently. Although general cultural themes can be established, the variations that exist between and within national groups of Arabs, such as country of origin and religion, are important aspects that must be considered in the healthcare system to reduce racial disparities and ensure social justice.
