3D mammography (digital breast tomosynthesis) is one in which a 3D image of the breast is taken with the help of x-rays.
Images of the breast are taken from various angles to come up with a detailed 3D image.
3D mammograms might take a few more seconds than the 2D mammogram.
This is because, in 3D, more images are taken. In mammography, a special medical imaging tool that uses a low dose of x-rays is used to view the insides of breasts.
Mammogram plays a crucial role in detecting and diagnosing breast diseases at an early stage itself.

How to do Breast Cancer Self Examination?

Your breast self-exam should be done the same time every month, 7-10 days after the start of your period if menstruating. If not, use a fixed day each month

Clock Method

In the Shower

Before a Mirror

Lying Down

One way to examine your breasts is using the clock method. Pretend your breast is a clock. Using the flat pads of your fingers, press gently but firmly in small overlapping circles. Start at 12 o’clock right below your collarbone and move towards the nipple. Do not miss an“hour”. Also, carefully examine the area between the breast and the armpit, as that area also contains breast tissue. Switch arms and repeat with the other breast.

Raise one arm placing your hand behind your head. Use your right hand to examine your left breast and your left hand for your right breast. With your fingers flat and soapy, check every part of each breast using the circular motion. Gently feel for a lump or thickening.

Begin with your arms at your side and then raised above your head, looking carefully for changes in the size, shape and contour of each breast. Look for puckering, dimpling, or changes in skin texture, colour or rashes. Check your nipples for any changes, such as whether they have become pulled in.

With your hand on your hip, tense and push that arm forward to make a pocket under the arm. Check this area. Repeat on the other side. Use this same method to check each breast when lying down.

With your arm resting on a firm surface, use the same circular motion to examine the underarm and side rib cage area.

You must also examine your breasts lying down. To balance your breast on your chest, place a towel or pillow under your right shoulder and place your right hand behind your head. Use your left hand to examine your right breast. Repeat on the other side.
