Screening Mammography is a type of mammography used to detect breast cancer in women who have no symptoms. It is typically recommended for women aged 40 and older, and is used to detect early signs of breast cancer before it can be felt or seen. Screening mammography is a low-dose X-ray imaging procedure that uses a specialized X-ray machine to take pictures of the breast. The images are then analyzed by a radiologist to look for any abnormalities. Screening mammography is an important tool in the early detection of breast cancer, as it can detect cancer before it can be felt or seen. It is also used to monitor women who have already been diagnosed with breast cancer, to ensure that the cancer has not spread or returned. Screening mammography is offered by a variety of healthcare providers, including hospitals, imaging centers, and private practices.
