Breast Cancer Screening

What is this screening?

A mammogram is an X-ray image of the breast. Mammograms can help find breast cancer early.

Who needs this visit?

Most women ages 40 to 74 should have a mammogram every 1-2 years. Some women may need screening earlier or more often depending on their personal or family history. Talk with your doctor about the screening schedule that is right for you.
