Time to clear up the confusion around breast screening recommendations!
At Outpatient Radiology, we follow the ACR & SBI’s evidence-based, gold-standard recommendations because we've seen firsthand how early detection saves lives. Their guidelines recommend:
🩷 A breast cancer risk assessment for all women by age 25
🩷 Annual screening mammograms beginning at age 40
🩷 Continued screening beyond age 74 when appropriate
Breast imaging experts know that screening matters, especially regarding when to start, how often to screen, and which supplemental imaging to use and when. These recommendations focus on evidence, patient impact, risk communication, and helping patients make informed decisions regarding their breast health.
