Why Mammography Is Needed

Mammography is used for routine breast cancer screening in women over a certain age or with risk factors like family history, and for diagnostic evaluation when a lump, nipple discharge, or other breast abnormality is found on self-examination or clinical exam. It helps detect breast cancer early, often before it can be felt.

Signs You May Need Mammography

Screening mammograms are typically done without symptoms as a preventive measure, while diagnostic mammograms are ordered when a patient notices a new lump, skin dimpling, nipple retraction or discharge, or unusual breast pain. A family history of breast or ovarian cancer often prompts earlier or more frequent screening even without symptoms.

Types of Mammography

Screening mammography is performed on asymptomatic women at regular intervals to catch early changes, while diagnostic mammography uses additional views to closely examine a specific area of concern. 3D mammography (tomosynthesis) is an advancing technique that creates multiple thin-section images of the breast, improving detection accuracy, particularly in women with dense breast tissue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a mammogram painful?

The breast is compressed between two plates for a few seconds to get a clear image, which can cause brief discomfort or pressure, but it is generally well tolerated and over quickly.

How much does a mammogram cost in India?

A standard mammogram typically costs between Rs 1,000 and Rs 3,000, while 3D mammography can cost more depending on the centre.

At what age should I start getting mammograms?

Most guidelines recommend starting regular screening mammograms around age 40 to 45 for average-risk women, though those with a strong family history may need to start earlier, as advised by their doctor.

Does a mammogram involve radiation risk?

Mammograms use a very low dose of radiation, and the benefit of early cancer detection generally far outweighs this minimal risk for women in the recommended screening age group.

What happens if something abnormal is found?

An abnormal finding often leads to additional imaging like an ultrasound or a biopsy to determine whether it is benign or requires further treatment, so try not to panic and follow up promptly with your doctor.

  • Insurance: check whether it is covered as a day-care or inpatient procedure under your policy or Ayushman Bharat.
  • Results and follow-up: ask when results will be ready and who will explain them.
