A mammogram is an x-ray picture taken of the breast. By screening mammograms, Millenium Medical Group can check for breast cancer in women who have no signs or symptoms of the disease. Diagnostic mammograms are used to check for breast cancer after a lump or any other sign or symptom of the disease has been found.

Mammograms are used to check for breast cancer in women who have no signs or symptoms of cancer. This type of mammogram is called a screening mammogram. Screening mammograms usually involve two x-ray pictures, or images, of each breast. The x-ray images make it possible so doctors can detect tumors that cannot be felt. Screening mammograms can also find microcalcifications (tiny deposits of calcium) that sometimes indicate the presence of breast cancer.

Mammograms are also used to check for breast cancer after a lump or other sign or symptom of cancer has been found. This type of mammogram is called a diagnostic mammogram. Signs of breast cancer may include skin thickening, pain, nipple discharge, or a change in the breast size or shape. These signs also may be indicators of benign conditions. A diagnostic mammogram can also be used to evaluate changes found during a screening mammogram or to view breast tissue when it is difficult to obtain a screening mammogram because of special circumstances, such as the presence of breast implants.
