What You Need to Know When Going to Mammography

The feeling of tightness and sometimes pain in the breast during mammography disturbs many women. The easiest way to reduce this is to go for a mammogram 7 days after your period starts.

Try to stand upright during the mammography.

Mammography is taken within 1-2 minutes. All shots take a maximum of 20 minutes.

Do not apply powder or powder-containing deodorant to your armpit when going for a mammogram. Powder particles appear as white powders in mammography and lead to incorrect evaluations.

Stay still while the mammogram is taken. If you move, the image will be distorted and a new shot will be required.

Research well when choosing a mammography center.

Prefer centers with systems that allow more detailed examinations, because the images taken allow for more detailed examinations.

Prefer centers where ultrasound examination can be performed on the same day as mammography. Thus, more accurate and faster results are achieved.

Do not forget that a breast examination must be performed by a specialist physician along with mammography and ultrasound. Thus, diagnostic reliability reaches 95%.
