An annual screening mammogram only takes 15 minutes.

Scheduling an annual mammogram starting at age 40 (or earlier, depending on your breast cancer risk factors and family history) is one of the most important things women can do to take control of their health. Lenox Hill Radiology proudly serves women throughout 5 boroughs – Manhattan, The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island with convenient, comfortable screening close to home.

Regular screenings make a difference!

A screening mammogram can detect breast cancer before symptoms appear, when treatment options are often more effective. Whether it's your first mammogram or your annual screening, we're here to make the experience as convenient and comfortable as possible.

Learn More About EBCD

"I had a wonderful experience and was very happy with the service I received. Everyone was professional, kind, respectful, and welcoming, which made me feel very comfortable throughout my visit. I was able to have my routine mammogram and two ultrasounds completed in a timely manner, and the wait was very reasonable. Each person I encountered took the time to make sure I was comfortable during the procedures, and I never felt rushed or uneasy. From beginning to end, I felt that I was in good hands. I truly appreciate the professionalism and excellent care I received and would definitely recommend this facility to others."

Frequently asked questions

A screening mammogram is a low-dose breast X-ray used to check for early signs of breast cancer, such as small masses or calcium deposits, before any symptoms appear.

Most women should begin annual screening at age 40. Women at higher risk — including those with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation, a close family history of breast cancer, or prior chest radiation therapy between ages 10 and 30 — may need to start as early as age 30.

Most women should have their first screening mammogram at age 40. If you have a family history of breast cancer or other risk factors, talk with your doctor about starting earlier.

Most women should schedule a screening mammogram every year starting at age 40. Your healthcare provider may recommend a different schedule based on your personal risk factors.

Contact your healthcare provider right away. Most lumps are not cancerous, but only a provider can evaluate a change and recommend next steps, which may include additional imaging.

Avoid wearing deodorant, powder, lotion, or talc on your chest and underarms the day of your exam, since these products can interfere with image quality. If you've had a prior mammogram elsewhere, bring those images and reports or have them sent to our office ahead of time.

A technologist positions you at the mammography machine and briefly compresses each breast to capture clear images from multiple angles. The full visit takes about 30 minutes. If you say yes to Enhanced Breast Cancer Detection® (EBCD®), it's included automatically at no extra time or radiation.

You're free to resume normal activities right away. A board-certified radiologist who specializes in women's imaging reads your results and sends them to your ordering provider. If additional imaging is needed, our office will call to schedule a follow-up diagnostic exam.
