Just this past January Martina Navratilova was diagnosed with a noninvasive form of breast cancer.

It was reported that the Navratilova, during a routine mammogram in January, found a lump, and a biopsy the following month determined it was ductal carcinoma in situ, or DCIS. The 18-time Grand Slam singles champion had a lumpectomy in March and will start six weeks of radiation therapy in May.

People magazine’s Web site first reported Navratilova’s diagnosis. And her prognosis is very good.

As the AARP’s Health and Fitness Ambassador she will be doing a web chat this Thursday, April 8th. She also plans on keeping up her commentating for  the Tennis Channel during the French Open.
