Mammography is the study of the breast using X-Rays. It is X-Rayof the breast which shows the fatty, fibrous, and glandular tissues.

There are two type of mammograms. A screening mammogram is ordered for women who have no problems with their breasts. It consists of two X-Rayviews of each breast: a craniocaudal (from above) and a mediolateral oblique (from the sides).

A diagnostic mammogram is for evaluation of abnormalities in either men or women. Additional x rays from other angles, or special coned views of certain areas, are taken.
