Mammography (imaging of the breast with X-rays) is life-saving in the early diagnosis of breast cancer.
Guidelines recommend screening with Mammography from the age of 40 in high-risk groups, average-risk groups, and all women.
As with all cancers, early diagnosis in breast cancer is of primary importance in treatment success and preventing deaths. The latest technology, Three-dimensional (3D) Mammography, also known as digital breast tomosynthesis, increases success in this field as the newest technology.
Additionally, Breast Ultrasound and Breast MRI are other important methods for diagnosis.
Do not neglect to have your mammography test done under your doctor's supervision.
