Recent advancements in early detection techniques and therapeutic approaches have contributed to higher survival rates and better patient care. Recent advancements in breast cancer detection, treatment, and prevention are explained in this systematic review. Mammography, ultrasound, MRI, molecular biomarkers, and artificial intelligence (AI) are examples of contemporary diagnostic techniques that assist physicians more accurately identify breast cancer at an early stage. Chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and personalised medicine are examples of new therapeutic approaches that have decreased side effects and increased treatment success. The incidence and burden of breast cancer can also be decreased by preventive interventions such routine screening, genetic counselling, healthy lifestyle choices, awareness campaigns, and early diagnosis. Treatment is becoming more effective and patient-specific thanks to developments in precision medicine and molecular biology. Drug resistance, high treatment costs, and unpleasant drug reactions are still issues, nevertheless.
