Mammogram

It's recommended that you get a mammogram every year.

Mary had a mammogram.

If I had found out in 2010, when I had the mammogram, I would not have wanted preventive surgery because I hoped to have another child, and I wanted to breastfeed again.

An influential group of medical experts, the US Preventive Services Task Force, recommended last week that most women receive a mammogram starting at age 40. […] This is a marked difference from the task force’s previous guidance, which was to start biennial mammograms by age 50.

In a country where the equipment to perform mammograms is in short supply, the expertise of these examiners is crucial.
