About Mammograms
A mammogram is an X-ray image of your breast used to screen for breast cancer and investigate breast abnormalities. Mammograms play a key role in early breast cancer detection and can help reduce breast cancer deaths by detecting cancer before symptoms appear.
During a mammogram, your breasts are compressed between two firm surfaces to spread out the breast tissue. An X-ray captures black-and-white images that are displayed on a computer screen and examined by a radiologist for signs of cancer.
There are two types of mammograms: screening mammograms and diagnostic mammograms. Screening mammograms are used to check for breast cancer in women who have no signs or symptoms. Diagnostic mammograms are used to check for breast cancer after a lump or other symptom has been found.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a mammogram?
A mammogram is an X-ray image of the breast used to screen for breast cancer and investigate breast abnormalities. It can detect changes in breast tissue that may be early signs of cancer, often before physical symptoms develop.
How long does a mammogram take?
The mammogram itself takes about 10-15 minutes. However, you should plan to be at the facility for about 30 minutes to allow time for registration and preparation.
Is a mammogram painful?
During a mammogram, your breasts are compressed between two firm surfaces to spread out the breast tissue. This compression can be uncomfortable or slightly painful for some women, but it only lasts for a few seconds for each image. The discomfort is temporary and necessary to get a good image.
