A mammogram is an X-ray of the breast. Screening mammograms are the best way to find breast cancer early, when treatment may work better. Getting screened for breast cancer saves lives.

Screen Test is improving access to cancer screening for thousands of individuals in Alberta communities where mammograms are not readily available.
