Mammography is a commonly used X-ray examination in breast medicine, which can observe the internal physiological structure of the breast and determine whether there are breast diseases.

During mammography, the first step is to place the breast between two flat plates, and then use the plates to press tightly while using X-rays to irradiate, which can observe the internal structure of the breast. During the examination, it mainly relies on two positions: one is the frontal position, and the other is the oblique position. The position can be determined according to the image. The operation of mammography is relatively simple and convenient, and the resolution is also relatively high. Generally, it is not limited by age, so it is a relatively routine breast examination method. If breast cancer symptoms occur, regular X-ray examinations can be performed to observe the condition. By observing the rib imagery, if there are plaques of calcification or fine calcification spots in the breast tissue, it may be an early symptom of cancer. Under the guidance of a doctor, the disease can be treated by surgical treatment.

When performing breast surgery, it is necessary to choose an appropriate surgical plan according to the condition. A relatively conservative surgical plan is to remove the lesion while retaining the breast tissue. It is also possible to use the total mastectomy method, which is safer and can prevent the spread of cancer.
