A mammogram is a specialized X-ray of the breasts designed to detect early signs of breast cancer, often before any visible symptoms or palpable lumps are present. Since breast cancer is most treatable in its early stages, mammography plays a vital role in routine screening and early detection, especially in women over 40. To enhance diagnostic accuracy, mammography is often combined with a breast ultrasound (Sono-Mammo), especially in women with dense breast tissue. This combination helps distinguish between solid and cystic lesions and improves early detection rates. At our advanced diagnostic centre in Mumbai, we offer high-resolution digital mammography paired with breast ultrasound (Sono-Mammo) for a more comprehensive and accurate diagnosis.

How is the Mammography Test Done?

During a Mammography Test, a skilled technologist positions and compresses your breast between two clear plates. The plates are attached to a highly specialized camera, which takes two pictures of the breast from two different directions.The same technique is repeated on the other breast. Mammography is mildly uncomfortable for some women, and the sensation lasts for just a few seconds. Compressing the breast is necessary to flatten and reduce the thickness of the breast so that the X-ray beam penetrates and the quality of the mammogram is optimized.
