Is DCIS Cancer or Not?

Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS) is a noninvasive breast cancer, classified as stage 0. It accounts for about 20-25% of breast cancer cases and remains localized without spreading to other tissues. While conventional medicine considers DCIS a form of cancer, it does not typically metastasize. Detection often occurs through mammograms, which identify calcifications.
