Unfortunately, routine screening mammograms are not recommended for women under 40 because risks outweigh potential benefits at this young age. While fewer than 5% of women with breast cancer are diagnosed before the age of 40(1), those cancers are usually aggressive, and the young patients suffer from poor survival outcomes.

With traditional mammograms, it can be difficult to detect cancers in dense breasts because the images are acquired in two dimensions and the breast is a three-dimensional structure. Usually these overlapping areas can be cleared with additional images and ultrasound but “false positive” call-backs cause a great deal of anxiety for women.
