Mammogram

According to experts, a mammogram is the best screening tool for detecting breast cancer at its earliest, most treatable stages. Using special x-ray imaging, a mammogram can reveal both harmless and cancerous growths even when they are too small to be felt through a breast self-exam or clinical breast exam.

An annual mammogram is recommended for women age 40 and over. If you have a family or personal history of breast cancer, your doctor may recommend beginning annual mammograms earlier.
