Preparation

  • It is recommended to perform the test in the first phase of the menstrual cycle.
  • Before the examination, you should not use lotions or other moisturizing cosmetics, as this will make the examination more difficult.
  • For your mammogram, please arrive at the registration desk approximately 15 minutes in advance:
    – with your referral,
    – with your ID,
    – with reading glasses (if you wear them, they will be needed to complete the questionnaire),
    – with images from previous mammograms (films and/or plates), if you have had previous mammograms – these images are necessary for comparison with the current exam and for a reliable and thorough assessment by the radiologist. After evaluation, the submitted images will be returned along with the mammogram results.
