When it comes to fighting cancer, early detection is paramount. A recent CNN article discussed an instance in which early detection came from an unlikely source. A 41-year-old woman was perusing images from her recent trip to Camera Obscura and World of Illusions, a tourist attraction in Edinburgh, when she noticed a hot spot on her breast. This prompted her to make an appointment with her doctor, which led to the diagnosis of early stage breast cancer.
