Mammography is a specialized imaging technique used to detect early signs of breast cancer and other abnormalities. It works by using low-dose X-rays to capture detailed images of breast tissue, allowing for the early detection of lumps, tumors, or other issues. Mammography plays a crucial role in women’s healthcare, particularly for those over 40 or those with a family history of breast cancer. Patients should choose mammography for routine breast screening or if they notice any unusual changes in breast tissue.
