Pain, or fear of pain, is one of the main reasons why 40 percent of women over the age of 40 do not get their annual screening mammograms. That’s why TMC offers digital mammography with the MammoPad® breast cushion, a soft, foam pad that helps minimize discomfort during a screening mammography.
How Does the MammoPad Breast Cushion Work? The cushion is placed on the imaging receptor, creating a warmer, softer surface between the woman and the mammography system. Clinical studies show that use of MammoPad reduces discomfort by 50% for three out of four women.
What are the Clinical Benefits of the MammoPad? By providing a softer, more comfortable mammogram, the MammoPad helps women relax, enabling technologists to get the best possible image.
