Mammogram - Nuffield Medical

What Is A Mammogram?

A mammogram is a special X-ray of your breast tissue. It's a crucial tool for detecting breast cancer early, even before you notice any symptoms. Mammography has been a vital tool in breast cancer detection for over 30 years, with significant advancements in the past 15 years improving both accuracy and safety. Modern mammography uses specialized equipment designed exclusively for breast X-rays, providing high-quality imaging while maintaining minimal radiation exposure, with risks considered negligible.

In Singapore, breast cancer is a significant health concern. The Singapore Cancer Society reports that it's the most common cancer among women in the country. About 1,000 Singaporean women are diagnosed each year. Shockingly, 1 in 13 Singaporean women here will face a breast cancer diagnosis in their lifetime.

Early detection through mammography significantly improves outcomes, as the five-year survival rate for early-detected breast cancer is an impressive 99%. Take control of your health today by scheduling your mammogram. Early detection is key to effective breast cancer treatment, and this simple screening could be a life-saving step. Don’t wait and book now to ensure your breast health is a priority.

Anatomy Of The Breasts

Your breasts are complex organs with several key parts. Each breast contains 15 to 20 lobes arranged like flower petals. These lobes have smaller lobules ending in tiny bulbs that produce milk.

Thin tubes called ducts connect the lobes, lobules, and bulbs. They lead to your nipple in the middle of a dark skin area called the areola. Fat fills spaces between lobules and ducts.

Your breasts don't have muscles, but muscles lie underneath and cover your ribs. Blood vessels and lymph vessels are also present. Lymph vessels connect to small organs called lymph nodes.

Breast tissue changes throughout your life. During puberty, it grows and develops. In pregnancy, it prepares for milk production. After menopause, it may become less dense.

A breast specialist can help you understand your unique breast anatomy. This knowledge is crucial for breast care and detecting any changes that might need attention.

Early Signs of Breast Issues in Women

Knowing your breasts is key to spotting changes early. You should check your breasts regularly for:

New lumps or thickening in breast tissue
Changes in breast size or shape
Skin dimpling or puckering
Nipple changes (inversion, discharge, rash)
Breast pain or tenderness

Don’t panic if you notice something different—most changes are not cancerous. However, it’s essential to have them examined by a doctor to be sure.

Tips for Breast Awareness:

Know how your breasts look and feel during different times of the month.
Perform monthly self-checks in front of a mirror, in the shower, or lying down.
Be aware of any unusual sensations, even if subtle.

Early detection saves lives. If you notice anything unusual, don’t delay—take action today.

At Nuffield Medical, we provide professional assessments and advanced diagnostics to give you peace of mind. Whether it’s a quick check-up or further investigations, our experienced team is here to support you every step of the way.

Book your appointment today and take the first step toward protecting your breast health. Don’t wait because your well-being is worth it!

Why Early Detection Through Mammogram is Key to Reducing Breast Cancer Mortality

Primary care providers play a key role in determining the appropriate timing and frequency of mammograms based on a patient’s individual risk factors.

They also educate women on breast health, the importance of early detection, and perform clinical breast exams, referring patients for further testing when necessary.

Through proactive involvement, PCPs help improve breast cancer outcomes and reduce the risks of late-stage diagnoses. Here is why our PCPs highly recommend early detection:

Improved survival rates: Early detection through mammograms significantly boosts survival rates and reduces mortality by identifying cancer before symptoms appear.
Less invasive treatment: Mammograms allow for the detection of cancerous changes long before physical symptoms develop, enabling earlier and less aggressive treatment options.
High survival rate: When detected early, the five-year survival rate for breast cancer can reach 99%, highlighting the life-saving benefits of timely diagnosis.
Increased treatment options: Early detection provides a broader range of treatment options, including less aggressive therapies, improving overall outcomes.
Prevention of disease spread: Detecting cancer at its earliest stages helps prevent the spread, reducing the likelihood of recurrence and minimizing the emotional and financial toll of late-stage treatments.
Effective tool: Mammograms are one of the most effective tools in fighting breast cancer, making regular screenings essential for long-term health.

When to See a Medical Specialist for Breast Screening?

Lump in Breast or Underarm: If you find a lump that feels different from the rest of your breast tissue or a new lump that doesn’t go away after your period, see a specialist.
- How Long: As soon as you notice, especially if it’s been more than one period.
Change in Breast Size or Shape: Any changes in breast size or shape, swelling or shrinking, especially on one side.
- How Long: If it’s been more than a few weeks.
Skin Changes: Redness, dimpling (like an orange) or puckering of the skin on the breast.
- How Long: If you see skin changes and they’ve been more than a few weeks.
Nipple Changes: Inversion of the nipple (when it wasn’t inverted before) or any change in the nipple’s position or shape.
- How Long: See a specialist if it’s been more than a few weeks.
Nipple Discharge: Especially if it’s clear, bloody or any color other than breast milk if you’re breastfeeding.
- How Long: See a doctor immediately if you notice nipple discharge.
Persistent Breast Pain: Breast pain that doesn’t go away after your period, especially if it’s in one spot.

Mammogram Benefits

Improved Survival Chances

Regular mammograms can significantly improve survival rates by catching cancer at its most treatable stage.

Higher Cure Rates

Early detection through mammograms increases the likelihood of curing breast cancer.

Less Aggressive Treatment Needed

Mammograms can identify cancer early, often reducing the need for more invasive treatments.

Better Treatment Outcomes

Early diagnosis via mammogram leads to more effective treatment options and outcomes.

Peace of mind

Knowing your breast health status can reduce worry and anxiety about breast cancer.

Painless and quick

The procedure is fast and causes minimal discomfort. It only takes about 20 minutes.

Dense breast tissue

Mammograms can detect abnormalities in dense breast tissue that might be hard to feel during a physical exam.

Baseline for comparison

Your first mammogram provides a baseline for future screenings, making it easier to spot changes over time.

Non-invasive

Unlike some other tests, mammograms don't require needles or injections.

Types of Mammograms

Screening Mammogram

A screening mammogram is a routine check for women with no breast symptoms. It's like a regular health check-up for your breasts.

Doctors recommend getting one every 1-2 years, starting at age 40 or 50, depending on your risk factors.

During the exam, the technician takes two X-ray pictures of each breast. These images help spot any changes or abnormalities that might need further investigation.

Screening mammograms are quick, usually taking about 15-20 minutes. They play a crucial role in catching breast cancer early when it's easier to treat.

Diagnostic Mammogram

If you notice a lump or have breast pain, your doctor might order a diagnostic mammogram. This test is more detailed than a screening mammogram and focuses on a specific area of concern.

The technician might take more images or use special techniques to get a closer look at the problem area. They might also zoom in on certain parts of your breast. The total radiation dose is higher because multiple X-ray images are required to capture the breast from various angles.

Diagnostic mammograms take longer than screening ones, often 30-60 minutes. The radiologist usually checks the images right away and may ask for more if needed.

Standard Mammogram

A standard mammogram, also called 2D mammography, is the most common type. It creates flat images of your breast tissue from two angles - top to bottom and side to side.

The technician gently compresses your breast between two plates to spread out the tissue. This helps get clearer images and reduces the radiation dose needed.

Standard mammograms are widely available and have been used for many years. They're good at finding calcifications and masses in the breast.

3D Mammography (Tomosynthesis)

3D mammography, or tomosynthesis, is a newer technique that creates multiple thin images of your breast. The X-ray arm moves in an arc, taking pictures from different angles.

A computer then combines these images to create a 3D view of your breast. This allows doctors to see through layers of tissue more clearly.

3D mammograms can:

Find more cancers than standard mammograms
Reduce false alarms and unnecessary follow-up tests
Work well for women with dense breasts

Many centres now offer 3D mammograms alongside or instead of standard ones.

Am I A Good Candidate For A Mammogram Screening?

If you're 40-49 years old: Go for annual mammogram screenings
If you're 50 years or older: Have mammograms every 2 years
Family history of breast cancer
Genetic predisposition
Personal history of breast cancer
You notice a lump in your breast
You suspect you might have breast cancer

Discuss with your doctor about starting screenings earlier if you have increased risk factors. Your GP can help determine if additional tests like breast ultrasound or MRI are needed.

Speak with your healthcare provider about:

Benefits and limitations of early screening
Your individual screening options
How often you should be examined

Remember, regular mammograms can detect breast cancer early, improving your treatment options and recovery rates. Don't hesitate to consult your doctor if you have any concerns or questions about breast health.

What Can A Mammogram Diagnose?

Breast cancer: Spots small tumours before you can feel them
Calcifications: Tiny calcium deposits that may signal cancer
Calcifications: Tiny calcium deposits that may signal cancer
Calcifications: Tiny calcium deposits that may signal cancer
Architectural distortions: Changes in breast structure that could be cancerous
Masses: Lumps or areas of abnormal tissue that may indicate benign conditions like fibroadenomas or cysts, or potentially cancerous growths.
Asymmetries: Uneven or irregular breast tissue patterns that could suggest an abnormality, especially if they are new or developing.
Distortions: Changes in the natural structure or shape of the breast tissue, which may indicate scar tissue, prior surgeries, or malignancies.

Mammograms can also show:

Breast density: Amount of fatty vs. fibrous tissue
Implant integrity: Checks for issues with breast implants

Remember, not all abnormalities mean cancer. Your doctor will explain your results and next steps.

A mammogram might lead to:

All-clear: No signs of cancer
Follow-up tests: More imaging or a biopsy if needed
Early detection: Finding cancer when it's most treatable

Regular screenings are key. They help catch issues early when they're easiest to treat.

Risk Factors For Women Health Issues

Gender: You're at a higher risk of breast cancer if you're a woman. Men can get it too, but it's rare - less than 1% of cases.
Age: Your risk goes up as you get older. If you're over 40, regular breast screenings are important.
Family history: Having close relatives with breast cancer raises your risk. This includes parents, siblings, or children.
Genetic mutations: Some inherited genes like BRCA1 and BRCA2 can increase your chances. These normally help repair DNA, but faulty versions may lead to cancer.
Hormones: Your risk may be higher if you started periods early, had late menopause, or had your first child after 30. Not having children can also increase risk.
Lifestyle: Being inactive, eating lots of fatty foods, or drinking too much alcohol can raise your risk. This is linked to oestrogen levels in your body.
Weight: If you're older and overweight, your risk is higher. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can also increase risk.
Previous issues: You're at higher risk if you've had breast cancer before or non-cancerous breast problems.
Smoking: Smoking is associated with a higher risk of breast cancer, particularly in premenopausal women. It also impacts overall cardiovascular and respiratory health.
Stress and Sleep Deprivation: Chronic stress and inadequate sleep can disrupt hormone levels, weaken immunity, and contribute to long-term health issues, including breast cancer.
Dense Breast Tissue: Women with dense breast tissue have a higher risk of breast cancer, and it can also make mammograms less accurate.
Exposure to Radiation: Past exposure to radiation therapy, particularly during childhood or adolescence, can increase breast cancer risk later in life.
Environmental Factors: Prolonged exposure to certain chemicals or pollutants may increase breast cancer risk. This includes substances that mimic hormones, such as endocrine disruptors.

Understanding your risk factors is the first step towards better health. At Nuffield Medical, we’re here to support you with comprehensive screenings, expert consultations, and personalized care to help you stay proactive and informed.

Mammogram Screening Procedure

Before The Procedure

On the day of your mammogram, avoid using deodorants, talcum powder, creams, lotions, or perfumes under your arms or on your breasts, as these can appear as white spots on the X-ray images.

Wear a two-piece outfit to make it easier to remove your top and bra. If you have breast implants or have undergone previous breast surgery, inform the staff beforehand.

Bring any prior mammogram results if you’re visiting a new facility; this allows the radiologist to compare images for a more accurate evaluation.

Let your healthcare provider know if you are breastfeeding, pregnant, or think you may be pregnant. They may recommend the best timing for your mammogram or suggest starting with an ultrasound instead.

Try to schedule your mammogram for the week after your period when your breasts are less tender. If you still get a menstrual period, recently received a vaccine, or experience hormonal breast changes, let the staff know as these can impact the results.

You will also be asked to fill out a form about your medical history and any breast-related concerns.

During The Procedure

A radiologist or technician will position your breast on a special X-ray machine. They'll flatten your breast between two plastic plates.

This can be uncomfortable but shouldn't be painful. The compression helps get clearer images.

You'll need to hold still and hold your breath for a few seconds while the X-ray is taken.

The technician will take at least two views of each breast from different angles.

Computer-aided detection (CAD) systems analyze digitized mammographic images, whether from conventional film or digital mammograms, to identify potential signs of cancer, such as masses, calcifications, or abnormal densities. These systems highlight areas of concern for the radiologist to review in greater detail.

The whole process usually takes about 20-30 minutes. Most women find it mildly uncomfortable but quick.

After The Procedure

You can resume your normal activities immediately after the mammogram, though your breasts may feel slightly sore from the compression; this usually subsides quickly. A radiologist will review your X-ray images and send a report to your doctor. You should receive your results within 10–14 days.

If your results are normal, you’ll be notified via a letter. The report will also include information about your breast density, which compares the amount of fibrous and glandular tissue to fatty tissue in your breasts.

By law, this information is now included in all mammogram reports.

In the case of abnormal results, you may be called back for follow-up tests, such as additional mammogram views or a breast ultrasound. Most of the time, this is due to inconclusive images rather than cancer. Keep in mind that most abnormal findings are benign (noncancerous).

If there is a suspicion of breast cancer, your doctor may recommend a biopsy to examine the tissue more closely.

Your mammogram results will also reference the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS), which categorizes findings from 0 to 6. This system helps explain your risk for cancer and provides clarity on next steps.

If you have questions about your results, don’t hesitate to discuss them with your healthcare provider. While it’s normal to feel anxious, remember that most mammograms return normal results, and even a callback doesn’t necessarily mean cancer.

Mammogram Risks

Radiation Exposure: Minimal but cumulative radiation from repeated screenings could slightly increase cancer risk over time.
False Positives: Common, leading to additional unnecessary testing, causing stress and anxiety.
Overdiagnosis: Detection of cancers that might never progress or cause symptoms, potentially leading to unnecessary treatments.
Overdiagnosis: Detection of cancers that might never progress or cause symptoms, potentially leading to unnecessary treatments.
Cancer Spread: Extremely rare, but pressure during mammography could potentially cause existing cancer to spread.
Discomfort or Pain: Breast compression during the procedure can cause temporary discomfort or pain, particularly for women with sensitive or tender breasts.
Skin Changes: Rarely, the compression might cause bruising or changes in the skin, especially in women with certain health conditions.
Cost and Accessibility Barriers: Some individuals may face financial or logistical challenges in accessing mammograms, potentially delaying screenings.
Psychological Impact: Anxiety from waiting for results or dealing with unclear findings can have an emotional toll, even when the final diagnosis is benign.

Understanding these risks can help you make an informed decision. Always discuss your personal health history and concerns with your doctor to determine the best screening approach for you.

Some key statistics on mammogram risks:

False positive rate: 10% of women called back after screening
Overdiagnosis rate: 1-10% of breast cancers detected
False negative rate: 20% of breast cancers may be missed

It's important to discuss these risks with your doctor and weigh them against the potential benefits of early detection.

Mammogram Vs Breast Ultrasound

8386 (1)

A mammogram uses low-dose X-rays to create images of your breast tissue, while a breast ultrasound uses sound waves to produce real-time images. Mammograms are the gold standard for breast cancer screening. They're typically recommended for women aged 40 and above. These X-ray images can spot early-stage breast cancer and tiny calcium deposits that might be signs of cancer.

Breast ultrasounds, on the other hand, are often used as a follow-up test. If your mammogram shows something unusual, your doctor might suggest an ultrasound to get a clearer picture. Ultrasounds are especially helpful for women with dense breast tissue.

Each test has its strengths. Mammograms are better at finding calcium deposits and can see the whole breast at once. Ultrasounds are great for telling the difference between solid masses and fluid-filled cysts.

Your age can affect which test is best for you. If you're under 45, a breast ultrasound might be more accurate. For women over 45, mammograms are usually preferred.

Remember, these tests work best together. Your doctor might use both to get the most complete picture of your breast health.

Always talk to your healthcare provider about which screening options are right for you.

Mammogram Complications

Increased Cancer Risk from Radiation: Although low, repeated exposure to radiation can marginally raise the risk of developing cancer.

Cost Of A Mammogram In Singapore

Screening mammogram: SGD $50 - SGD $100
Diagnostic mammogram: SGD $200 - SGD $400
Standard mammogram: SGD $100 - SGD $250
3D mammography (tomosynthesis): SGD $250 - SGD $500

Early Detection of Breast Cancer in Younger Women

young-european-lady-black-top-standing-with-ribbon-sign-her-chest-support-pink-october-females-combating-breast-cancer-anonymous-studio-shot-high-quality-photo-white-background (1)

For women under 40 years old, routine mammograms are generally not recommended unless they have a high risk of breast cancer. However, there are alternative screenings and methods for younger women based on individual risk factors:

Breast Ultrasound: Often used for younger women with dense breast tissue, this imaging test helps detect abnormalities and is commonly performed if a lump is found.
Breast MRI: Recommended for high-risk individuals (e.g., those with BRCA1/BRCA2 gene mutations or a strong family history of breast cancer), an MRI provides detailed images of breast tissue.
Clinical Breast Exam (CBE): Performed by a healthcare provider, this physical examination checks for lumps or abnormalities in the breast tissue.
Breast Self-Awareness: Women are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the normal look and feel of their breasts to identify any unusual changes, such as lumps, skin changes, or nipple discharge.
Genetic Testing: For those with a significant family history of breast or ovarian cancer, genetic testing can assess their risk and guide screening recommendations.
Each screening or alternative is tailored to the individual's risk profile and medical history. Consulting with a healthcare provider is essential to determine the most appropriate approach.

Preventing Breast-Related Issues

Get regular mammograms. Book screenings as recommended by your GP. Early detection makes a big difference.
Know your breasts. Check them monthly for any changes in size, shape, or feel. Report anything unusual to your doctor straight away.
Stay active. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise weekly. Physical activity may help reduce breast cancer risk.
Maintain a healthy weight. Being overweight after menopause can increase your chances of developing breast cancer.
Limit alcohol. Try to have no more than one drink per day. Alcohol consumption is linked to higher breast cancer risk.
Don't smoke. Smoking is associated with a higher risk of breast cancer, especially in younger women. If you smoke, seek support to quit.
Eat a balanced diet. Focus on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Avoid processed foods and excess sugar.
Get adequate sleep. Prioritize 7–9 hours of quality sleep each night, as disruptions in sleep patterns may interfere with hormonal balance and potentially increase breast cancer risk.
Manage stress. Chronic stress can weaken your immune system and affect hormone levels. Practice relaxation techniques such as yoga, meditation, or deep breathing to promote mental and physical well-being.
Stay informed. Keep up with the latest recommendations for breast health and cancer prevention. Regular check-ins with your doctor ensure you're on track with personalized care.

Following these tips can help protect your breast health. Remember, no single action can prevent all issues. Regular check-ups with your GP are vital for catching any problems early.

FAQs

Are Mammograms Safe?

Yes, mammograms are safe. They use low-dose X-rays to examine breast tissue. The benefits of early detection far outweigh the minimal radiation exposure.

At What Age Should You Get a Mammogram?

Most healthcare providers recommend starting mammograms at age 40. Women with higher risk factors may need to begin earlier. Consult your doctor for personalised advice.

How Accurate is a Mammogram Screening?

Mammograms are quite accurate, but not perfect. They can detect about 87% of breast cancers. Some cancers may be missed, and some abnormalities may not be cancer.

How Often Should I Get a Mammogram?

Women aged 40-49 should get mammograms every 1-2 years. Those 50 and older should have them annually. Your doctor may recommend a different schedule based on your risk factors.

How Long Does a Mammogram Take?

A typical mammogram takes about 20-30 minutes. The actual breast compression and X-ray only lasts a few seconds for each image.

Is a Mammogram Painful?

Mammograms can be uncomfortable but shouldn't be painful. Your breasts are compressed briefly to get clear images. Discomfort usually lasts only a few seconds.

How Should I Schedule My Mammogram?

Schedule your mammogram for 1-2 weeks after your period when your breasts are less tender. Avoid booking during your menstrual cycle for more comfortable screening.

How do I Know if I Need a Mammogram?

If you're 40 or older, you should get regular mammograms. Women with high risk factors may need to start earlier. Consult your doctor for personalised recommendations.

What is the best method of screening for breast cancer?

Mammography is currently the best screening method for breast cancer. It can detect tumours before they're large enough to feel and find tiny calcium deposits that may indicate cancer.

Can a mammogram detect cancer?

Mammograms can show abnormalities that might be cancer, but they can't diagnose cancer definitively. If an abnormality is found, further tests like a biopsy are needed for a diagnosis.

Do breast implants interfere with Mammogram?

Having silicone or saline breast implants can make it harder for radiologists to view all breast tissue on regular mammograms, so two additional implant displacement (ID) views are typically taken for each breast to improve imaging.

It’s essential to inform the mammogram facility about your implants when scheduling and to remind the technologist on the day of your appointment.

Do I Need to Shave My Armpits Before a Mammogram?

No, you don't need to shave your armpits for a mammogram. However, avoid using deodorant, antiperspirant, or powder under your arms or on your breasts on the day of your appointment.

Can I Go for a Mammogram if I Have Breast Implants?

Yes, you can have a mammogram with breast implants. Inform the clinic beforehand. The technician will take extra care and may need additional images to see breast tissue clearly.

How do I Do a Breast Self Examination?

Perform a breast self-exam monthly, about a week after your period starts. Check for changes in size, shape, or texture. Feel for lumps or thickening in your breasts and armpits.
