Recommendations:
Annual mammogram starting at age 40 and continuing for as long as a woman is in good health.
 | Screening ultrasound - performed in the comfort of our office - if indicated on mammography or physical exam, or if you have special concerns | | | | Clinical breast exam (CBE) should be part of a periodic health exam, about every 3 years for women in their 20s and 30s and every year for women 40 and over. | | | | Women should know how their breasts normally feel and report any breast change promptly to their health care providers. Breast self-exam (BSE) is an option for women starting in their 20s. |
