Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. A provider order and an appointment are required. To schedule your appointment, call 402-481-5121.
Who should get a mammogram?
Mammography screening guidelines vary based on a woman's age and risk factors for breast cancer. Talk to your healthcare provider about the screening plan that is best for you.
If you are experiencing symptoms such as a breast lump, nipple discharge or dimpling of the skin on one area of the breast, talk to your healthcare provider about a mammogram.
Mammography is the best screening tool for breast cancer available today. Research shows mammograms lead to early detection of breast cancers. Early detection is the key to treating cancer when it is most curable.
How do I prepare for my mammogram?
Taking these steps can help make your mammogram more comfortable and effective:
- Schedule your mammogram at a time of month when your breasts are not tender.
- Dress in a comfortable, two-piece outfit; you will be asked to undress from the waist up and to remove any jewelry that might get in the way.
- Do not wear deodorant as this can interfere with the mammogram results; we provide deodorant packets for you after your exam.
- Do not use talcum powder, ointment or cream on your breasts or underarms as this can interfere with the mammogram results.
- Lower caffeine intake a few days before your mammogram, as it can sometimes cause breasts to be more sensitive.
- Follow any other directions you receive from your provider or when you schedule your exam.
- Save time by pre-registering in MyChart or please arrive 15 minutes before your exam time. Remember to bring a photo ID, your insurance card and any additional forms provided by your doctor
