Pictures for taking a self breast exam.

Where can my wife view a self breast exam? She felt a lump just a day back. She got a bit worried and she wants to know what could be the cause of the lump. What are the many problems a woman can face with her breasts? She wants a print out of the images, so please give some links to the procedure of examining your breast yourself. She would like to recommend it to some friends too, to help detect breast cancer.
