Mammography Services in Owerri

Mammography is a specialised breast imaging technique that uses low-dose X-rays to examine breast tissue for abnormalities. It plays an important role in the early detection of breast cancer and the evaluation of breast changes, including lumps, pain, nipple discharge, and other unusual symptoms.

At Lifeway Medical Diagnostic Centre, Owerri, Imo State, mammography can support the assessment of breast health and help healthcare professionals make informed clinical decisions.

Mammography may be performed as screening mammography for individuals without breast symptoms or diagnostic mammography to investigate specific breast concerns. The examination can help identify suspicious masses, microcalcifications, and other tissue changes that may require further evaluation.

Patients should inform the healthcare professional about pregnancy or possible pregnancy, previous breast procedures, and any current breast symptoms. Mammography may cause temporary discomfort due to breast compression. If a suspicious finding is identified, additional imaging or a biopsy may be recommended.
