Mammography, whose full name is breast mammography X-ray examination, also known as molybdenum-palladium examination, is currently the preferred, simplest and most reliable non-invasive detection method for diagnosing breast diseases. It is relatively less painful, simple and easy to perform, with high resolution and good repeatability. The images retained can be used for before-and-after comparison, and are not restricted by age or body shape. It is currently used as a routine examination. Its characteristic is that it can detect breast lumps that doctors cannot feel, especially for large breasts and fatty breasts. Its diagnostic accuracy can be as high as 95%. For T0 breast cancer (clinical outpatient negative) with a few tiny calcifications as the only manifestation, it can only be discovered and diagnosed early with the help of soft X-ray examinations. The diagnostic sensitivity of breast cancer is 82% to 89%, and the specificity is 87% to 94%.
