Description

Mammography or mammogram is an X-ray of the breasts to determine breast cancer or any other cyst/lump formation in them. Early detection is important, as a patient may need to undergo breast cancer surgery. Every woman in her 40s and ahead should undergo mammography once a year for protecting themselves from breast cancer. Those who have a family history of breast tumors are at a greater risk of getting them and should undergo screening regularly. Mammography can be useful in cases, where men experience symptoms that could suggest tumors or lumps in breast.
