Best timing for breast screening in women ages 45–49 and 70–74
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at the best time interval for breast cancer screening (mammograms) for women in two age groups. The goal is to reduce missed cancers while avoiding unnecessary tests.

This study looks at how often older breast cancer survivors (80+) should get mammograms. It aims to make screening more personalized so women get the right amount of imaging.
This trial compares different imaging schedules after breast-conserving surgery for people with a higher risk of recurrence. It tests whether more frequent or different types of scans can catch any return of cancer earlier.
This study looks at how to decide the best breast cancer screening (like mammograms) based on your personal risk. It may help by testing a smarter way to match screening to your risk level.
This study aims to improve breast cancer screening for Black women by understanding barriers to mammography and ways to increase screening rates. Your participation helps researchers develop better support and resources for screening mammograms.
This trial tests if changing the order of mammogram views makes the exam more comfortable for women who have had breast cancer surgery and radiation. You may be able to join if you are due for your first check-up mammogram after finishing treatment.
This study tests whether getting a contrast-enhanced mammogram (CEM) every two years is effective for detecting breast cancer in women who have had breast cancer before. If you qualify, you will receive CEM instead of a standard mammogram to see if it helps find cancer earlier.
