Breast Health Package for Women Over 40
Our Breast Health Center, which is a part of Yaşam Hospital Oncology Center, offers all the possibilities of technology to provide the best care to every woman.
What is Mammography?
Mammography is the low-dose X-ray imaging of the breast tissue to look for early signs of breast cancer before symptoms develop. It can also be used for due diligence when a new symptom (lump or focal pain) develops in the breast tissue.
When viewed on a mammogram, breast tissue appears white and opaque (nebula), while fatty tissue appears darker and translucent.
When Should a Mammogram Be Done?
Annual screening mammograms are recommended for all women from the age of 40. Women who do not have any breast-related signs or symptoms are also screened. If an abnormality is present or patients have a new symptom (a lump or focal pain), additional evaluation may be required. Further examination will reveal what these suspected abnormalities are.
What Percent of Women Who Have Had Mammography Have Risky Situations?
Potential abnormalities are found in 6 to 8 percent of women who get mammograms. This group undergoes different additional evaluations, which may include breast physical examination, diagnostic mammography, breast ultrasound or needle biopsy.After these additional evaluations are completed, it becomes clear what the abnormalities found on the mammogram are.
What Does an Abnormality Look Like on a Mammogram?
The possible abnormality on a mammogram may be called a nodule, mass, lump, density or deterioration:
A mass (lump) with a smooth, well-defined border is usually benign.
Ultrasound is necessary to see and identify the inside of a mass. If the mass contains fluid, it is called a cyst.
A mass (lump) with irregular borders or a starburst appearance may be cancerous and a biopsy is usually recommended.
Microcalcifications (small calcium deposits) are another type of abnormality. They can be classified as benign, suspicious, or uncertain. Most microcalcifications are benign. Depending on how the microcalcifications appear in additional studies (magnification views), a biopsy may be recommended.
What is the Accuracy Rate of Mammography?
Diagnoses made by mammography are between 85 percent and 90 percent accurate. Mammograms can detect breast abnormalities before they are large enough to be felt. However, a palpable mass may not be seen on a mammogram. Any abnormality you feel while examining your breasts should be evaluated by your doctor.
What Should Be Considered Before Mammography?
You can follow your normal routine before the mammogram. You can take your medications and maintain your eating and drinking patterns. If you are breastfeeding, pregnant or think you may be pregnant, you should tell your doctor as your mammogram may need to be postponed.
What Should I Pay Attention to When Coming to My Mammography Appointment?
The technician will ask you to remove one breast from your bib at a time and place it on the chest support plate. The image of the breast is taken by clamping it between two plates. In the meantime, pressure is applied to the breast, preventing the breast from moving. This pressure spreads the breast tissue, allowing the radiologist to see the tissue better. Also, the least amount of radiation is used when the breast is compressed as finely as possible.
You may feel some discomfort during 3-5 seconds of pressure. If you cannot tolerate the pressure, please let the technician know. Pressure can be more bothersome at some times in a woman’s menstrual cycle. To minimize discomfort, we recommend scheduling your appointment seven to 10 days after the start of your period.

What is laser tattoo removal?
Tattooing is a permanent procedure on the skin. Tattoo removal can be done with modern methods when, for any reason, the person does not want to see his tattoo on his body anymore.
Tattoo removal, permanent make-up and stain treatment can be performed with the Q-switch Nd:YAG laser. This process is a technology that destroys the color pigments used in tattoos by focusing. During this very delicate process, the laser sees and destroys the pigment and damages the tissue as little as possible. In laser tattoo removal, which is a long and laborious process, one hundred percent result may not always be achieved. For this, the decision to have a tattoo should be considered very well, and possible future regrets should be considered.
How is laser tattoo removal done?
Tattoo and skin analysis should be done before the procedure. Lasers designed for tattoo removal and spot treatment send the beam to the epidermis layer of the skin, absorb the compounds that give color to the dermis and subcutaneous tattoo, and destroy the chemical substance by breaking it down. The wavelength of the laser; is adjusted according to the size, density and color of the tattoo.
In laser shots, dye pigments are made without damaging the tissues.
While black dyes under the skin are better detected by the laser, more effective results are obtained, while the same is not true for light-colored dyes.
Different wave sizes are used in tattoos with multi-colored paints.
How many sessions does laser tattoo removal take?
There are some environmental and structural factors in tattoo removal. It is important in which part of the body the tattoo is located. More sessions are required to remove tattoos, especially on the tips of the feet and fingers. For tattoos on larger areas of the body, a more effective process is performed and removed. The duration of the erasing process varies due to the color of the tattoo, the amount and type of paint used in the tattoo. Tattoo removal sessions take place at intervals of approximately 1.5 – 2 months. The number of sessions varies according to the person and the nature of the tattoo.
Will there be any scars after laser tattoo removal?
After each tattoo removal session, the color of the tattoo will lighten by approximately 20%. In tattoos where multi-colored and phosphorescent colors are used, the erasing process may be longer.
Is laser tattoo removal painful?
After numbing the skin part with cream or local anesthesia, the procedure is performed by protecting the upper skin layer in that area with the help of a Q-Switch ND-YAG laser and cooler. After the procedure, there may be bleeding in the area and crusting on the skin that will last for about a few days after the procedure. After the application, antibiotic cream should be used to both repair the area and prevent the development of infection.
When should laser tattoo removal be done?
While tattoo removal is more comfortable in winter, it is not preferred in summer due to the risk of staining with the effect of the sun. The time of the procedure varies according to the size of the tattoo. Since the sun is out in the summer, problems such as permanent staining may occur after the procedure. The best time for this is the winter months. | During pregnancy, due to sudden growth in the abdomen or as a result of weight gain or loss, sagging in the abdomen, cracks, etc. There are some undesirable changes.
