This medical illustration pictures the circular palpation performed in a breast self-examination. The torso of a woman in an upright (standing) position is shown with the right arm extended. Directional arrows indicate the movement of her other hand as it palpates the right breast in an up and down path across the breast, starting medially (mid-sternum) and moving out towards the axilla.
