Summary:The present training device is a body of elastically yielding material, such as foam rubber preferably enveloped by a skin-like cover, for example, of rubber. A plurality of lumps of varying hardness, size and configuration are distributed in the foam rubber body in various locations adjacent to the skin-like envelope as well as deeper in the foam rubber body. The lumps may be made of plastics material and may be distinctly sensed by touching and pressing the outer envelope so as to familiarize a person performing the examination with the symptoms of actual breast cancer.
