Mammography is the primary imaging modality used for breast cancer screening in women over the age of 40.

The American Cancer Society recommends annual mammograms for women over the age of 40 to detect breast cancer early.

Breast ultrasound is used for a variety of purposes, including screening for breast cancer, evaluating breast lumps or masses, and guiding breast biopsy.

Breast MRI is commonly used to evaluate the extent of breast cancer, as it can provide detailed images of the breast tissue and identify any suspicious lesions.

Mammograms are primarily used to detect breast cancer early, before it becomes palpable or causes symptoms.

Ultrasound is commonly used to guide breast biopsy, as it provides real-time images of the breast tissue and allows the physician to accurately target the suspicious lesion.

Breast MRI with contrast enhancement is often used to detect recurrent breast cancer, as it can identify small lesions that may not be visible on mammogram or ultrasound.

Ultrasound is the preferred imaging modality for evaluating breast implants, as it can assess the integrity of the implant and detect any complications, such as rupture or leakage.

Mammograms are used to monitor response to breast cancer treatment by detecting residual breast cancer, evaluating the effectiveness of treatment, and monitoring for recurrence of breast cancer.

Ultrasound is commonly used to evaluate breast pain, as it can identify any underlying structural abnormalities, such as cysts or masses, that may be causing the pain.

Breast MRI is sometimes used in pregnant women to evaluate breast lumps or masses that are detected during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Breast MRI is often used to evaluate breast cancer in young women, as it is more sensitive than mammography in detecting breast cancer in dense breast tissue.

Mammograms can be used to evaluate breast implants by detecting implant rupture, assessing implant position, and monitoring implant integrity.

Breast MRI is often used to evaluate breast cancer in women with dense breast tissue, as it is more sensitive than mammography in detecting breast cancer in dense breast tissue.

Mammograms are used to screen for breast cancer in women with a family history of breast cancer, as they are at an increased risk of developing breast cancer.
