A mammogram is an x-ray of the breast tissue. This test is done to look for signs of breast cancer and can also be used to look at the breast tissue if there is a problem or concern identified. While a mammogram can’t prove that an abnormal area is cancer, they can greatly assist in helping the health care provider determine whether more testing is needed. We know that this is the single most effective way to screen for the early detection of precancerous or cancerous cells.
