How to Prepare for a Mammogram
While the mammogram is a short test, there are a few things you can do to help simplify the procedure.

• Bring previous mammogram films if you were tested at a different facility.
• Do not apply powder, creams, or deodorant on the day of the mammogram as they may contain substances that could interfere with the accuracy of the x-rays.
• Wear a top with a skirt or slacks since you will be asked to remove your top and bra.
