Mammograms do not typically hurt, however, at traditional radiology centers where technologists do not specialize in mammography, there can be some discomfort due to the way they are conducted. At Breastnet, we specialize in breast health and breast care, creating an environment where there is little discomfort to our patients. The equipment used at Breastnet minimizes the pulling and pinching of the breast tissue, making the exam that much more comfortable.
