About Mammography at Our Hospital

Mammography and ultrasound examinations each have different strengths. Because the two examinations are complementary, using them together increases the rate of cancer detection, so it is best to undergo both examinations if possible. However, when it comes to choosing one over the other, your doctor will decide on the examination method based on your age, the state of development of the mammary glands, etc.

Mammography

advantage

Easy to grasp the overall picture of calcification and mammary glands

The shooting method is set, making it easy to compare images with past ones.

Disadvantage

There is a small amount of radiation exposure .

Since the breasts are flattened and pinched, it may be painful.

* Tests cannot be taken if you are pregnant or suspected to be pregnant.

In those with developed mammary glands (those with dense breasts), it may be difficult to find lesions.
