Description
MAMMOGRAPHY
X-ray mammogram (also called “mammo”) is available at the Delhi and Noida facilities. Doctors use a mammogram to look for early signs of breast cancer.1 Breast cancer is the commonest malignancy among women globally.2 In India, the incidence has increased significantly, almost by 50%, between 1965 and 1985.3 All population-based cancer registries have shown a significant increase in the trend of breast cancer.4
A mammogram can often find or detect breast cancer early, when it’s small and even before a lump can be felt. This is when it’s likely to be easiest to treat.5

TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) for a test depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
Please note that in uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to the complexity of the test or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed about the estimated TAT at the time of registration or after completion of the test.
