Getting a mammogram is the gold standard for breast cancer detection, and the American Cancer Society recommends an annual mammography screening for all healthy women beginning at age 40. Why is it so important? Mammograms can help doctors detect abnormalities and changes in breast tissue before they start to cause symptoms. Early detection and treatment of breast cancer can be lifesaving, so let us make it easy for you to take the preventive screening that could make all the difference.
