Giuliana Rancic Rips The American Cancer Society

Giuliana Rancic slammed the American Cancer Society on Tuesday over the organization's new suggestion that women get mammograms "later and less often."



In case you don't know, Rancic, 41, was diagnosed with breast cancer back in 2011 and had a double lumpectomy to have her tumors removed. 

The TV personality has since made a full recovery.

After CNN aired a story in which breast cancer researchers argued females will get fewer false positives and be spared unnecessary testing if they are screened for breast cancer later in life, Giuliana blasted the report.

Along with a screenshot of the CNN story, she shared on her Instagram account that report was "making my head spin."

Rancic claimed: "American Cancer Society is now recommending women get their first mammogram at 45 instead of 40. Wow. If I had taken that advice, I wouldn't have found my breast cancer at 36 and instead have found it NINE years later. Who knows how much my cancer would have progressed by then???" adding: "How can this be the recommendation when EARLY detection has an almost 100% five-year survival rate?" 

As far as the "unnecessary testing" cited by the experts, Giuliana stated: "I would gladly take those tests over living with undetected breast cancer any day."
