A mammogram is a specialized X-ray used to examine breast tissue for signs of cancer or other abnormalities. It is an essential screening tool for early detection of Breast cancer, particularly in women over 40 or those with a family history of the disease. The procedure involves compressing the breast to obtain clear images, which can help identify tumors or calcifications that may not be felt during a physical exam. Regular mammograms can significantly improve treatment outcomes by allowing for earlier intervention.
