Mammogram Procedure
A mammogram uses low-dose X-rays to create detailed images of the breast by gently compressing it between two plates for a short time.
Avoid using deodorant or powders before the test, as they may appear on the image. Wear a two-piece outfit for convenience.
The breast is placed on a flat plate and gently pressed to spread the tissue. X-rays are taken quickly, usually within 20 minutes.
No recovery is needed. Some mild discomfort may be felt, but normal activities can be continued. Results are reviewed by the doctor later.
