Mammography

On the day of your exam do not apply underarm deodorant or powder from the waist to the neck. If you must use powder or deodorant, please let us know before the exam so that we may provide you with wipes to remove it.
Please try to wear a two-piece outfit for your ease of changing and comfort.
If you have had prior mammograms at another institution, you must bring them with you or have them mailed to us one week prior to your appointment. These will be utilized for comparison to your new exam.
