A mammogram is a specialized X-ray of the breast which is used to detect and evaluate changes in the breast.

NOTE: If you have a choice, digital mammography has advantages over standard mammography. Digital results can easily be stored, e-mailed, and converted to a format for comparison with previous mammograms.
