Frequently asked questions about mammography.
What is a mammogram?
A mammogram is an x-ray picture of the breast that can detect breast cancer in its earliest, most treatable stage. High-quality mammography is the most effective tool available to detect breast cancer early, before symptoms appear — often before a breast lump can even be felt.
Who should get a mammogram?
Starting at age 40 women have the choice to start screening for breast cancer with mammograms, if they wish to do so. If your family has a history of breast cancer or abnormal screenings, you should speak with your OB/GYN provider to see if you should start screenings at a younger age. From ages 45 and up we recommend that women receive an annual mammogram.
What happens after a mammogram?
The radiologist will report your mammogram findings directly to you, or to your doctor who will contact you with the results. If you need further tests or exams, your doctor will notify you.
