Mammography is a specific type of breast imaging that uses low-dose x-rays to detect cancer early – before women experience symptoms – when it is most treatable.
Tell your doctor about any breast symptoms or problems, prior surgeries, hormone use, whether you have a family or personal history of breast cancer, and if there’s a possibility you are pregnant. If possible, obtain copies of your prior mammograms and make them available to your radiologist on the day of your exam. Leave jewelry at home and wear loose, comfortable clothing. You may be asked to wear a gown. Don’t wear deodorant, talcum powder or lotion under your arms or on your breasts as these may appear on the mammogram and interfere with correct diagnosis.


The injected dose in the patient does not pose a risk to the patient's health under normal circumstances. However, there are precautions to be avoided, as in the case of pregnant women, where radioactive material may be a real danger to the fetus, especially in the first months of pregnancy. It should be noted that the patient is the same source of radiation, and this may continue for several hours after the end of the examination (sometimes for 24 hours), in these cases advised not to contact the patient for long periods during those hours, so as not to contact relatives without radiation unnecessarily.
