Mammogram Screening Preparation
If this is your first time having a mammogram at Hoag Breast Center or
one of Hoag’s imaging facilities, please obtain any previous mammographic
studies and bring them with you for comparison purposes. Comparing previous
films with present studies allows for a proper diagnosis to be performed.
In addition, on the day of your mammogram, please do not use deodorants,
creams or powders in the underarm or breast area. Since you will be asked
to undress from the waist up and wear a comfortable robe, you will find
that wearing a skirt or pants will be more convenient than a dress.
If you have concerns or questions about your upcoming mammogram, please
call us at
949-764-5780.
