Mammography is the X-ray examination of breasts to image breast tissues. The goal is to detect breast cancer in its early stages for early treatment.

The American Cancer Society urges women to make regular screening for breast cancer a part of their health plans using these guidelines:

Women age 20-39 should have a clinical breast exam by a doctor or nurse every three years, and do a self-exam every month.

Women aged 40 and older should have a mammogram every year, have a clinical breast exam by a doctor or a nurse every year, and do a breast self-exam every month.
