Description

Mammography is an X-ray imaging test used to detect breast cancer early, recommended for women over 40 or with risk factors; in China, costs typically range ¥200–¥500, and ChinaMedicalHub helps coordinate hospital appointments and interpreter support.

Main Uses

The primary purpose of mammography is for the early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer. It is also used to evaluate breast lumps, investigate nipple discharge, and as a follow-up tool after breast cancer treatment. Mammography is recommended for women aged 40 and older, or earlier if there's a family history of breast cancer, for regular screening.

Normal Range

Mammography does not have a numerical normal range like blood tests. Instead, the results are interpreted based on the appearance of the breast tissue. A normal mammogram shows no signs of calcifications, masses, or architectural distortions that could indicate cancer or other abnormalities.

Low Values - Possible Causes

N/A - Mammography does not produce values that can be considered 'low'. It is an imaging test used to detect physical changes in the breast tissue.

High Values - Possible Causes

N/A - Mammography does not produce values that can be considered 'high'. Abnormal findings may include presence of microcalcifications, masses, or other suspicious areas which require further investigation.
