Breast Screening

DIAGNOSTIC METHODS

Mammogram

What is a mammogram?

A mammogram is an x-ray of breast tissue that can find changes too small to be felt during a physical examination. A screening mammogram is used to check for breast cancer in women who have no signs or symptoms. A diagnostic mammogram is used to check for breast cancer after a lump or other sign or symptom has been found.

What happens during a mammogram?

During a mammogram, each breast is pressed between two x-ray plates, which spread the breast tissue out so that clear pictures can be taken. Both breasts will be checked during a mammogram and usually two x-ray pictures are taken of each breast. This can be uncomfortable, but it only takes about 20 seconds.

How do I get the results of my mammogram?

The results will be mailed to you and, with your consent, your doctor.

Who should have a mammogram?

A screening mammogram is recommended for all women aged 50 to 74, provided they have been informed about the risks (see below) as well as the benefits of screening. Mammography screening is freely available to women aged 50 to 74, every two years, under the BreastScreen Australia program. Women aged 40-49 and those aged over 74 can also be screened free of charge, but they will not receive invitation letters.
