Now the mammary glands are made up theselves of these ducts or lactiferous ducts and then these branches of into these end lobules or lobules that usually where the milk is made when a woman becomes pregnant. Now, most breast cancers are lobular or cancers found in lobules or ductule where the cancer can be found to form in the ducts.So this is an anatomy of the breast so you can know where it's make up of and where most breast cancers are found."
