Frequently Asked Questions
At what age should I start getting screening mammograms?
A: Most women should begin annual screening at age 40. However, if you have a family history of breast cancer or other risk factors, your doctor may recommend starting earlier.
Does a mammogram hurt?
A: Some women experience mild discomfort or pressure during the procedure, but it only lasts a few seconds. Our technologists are trained to make the experience as comfortable as possible.
What’s the difference between a screening and diagnostic mammogram?
A: A screening mammogram is performed when there are no symptoms, while a diagnostic mammogram is done when there are concerns such as a lump, pain, or abnormal screening results.
Do breast imaging tests use a lot of radiation?
A: No. Mammograms use very low-dose X-rays, and the benefits of early detection far outweigh the minimal risk from radiation exposure. Ultrasound and MRI do not use radiation at all.
Is 3D mammography better than traditional mammography?
A: 3D mammography provides clearer, layered images of the breast, which can improve cancer detection and reduce the number of false alarms, especially in women with dense breast tissue.
What happens if my imaging shows something abnormal?
A: If additional evaluation is needed, our team will guide you through the next steps, which may include further imaging or a biopsy. Most findings turn out to be benign (non-cancerous).
