You wear a gown but your breast must be uncovered while taking the mammogram so you can put it in the machine.
The cost of a mammogram machine can vary significantly based on its type and features, typically ranging from $100,000 to over $500,000. Digital mammography machines tend to be on the higher end of the spectrum, while analog machines may be less expensive. Additionally, factors such as installation, maintenance, and software can influence the overall cost. It's advisable for healthcare facilities to consider both initial costs and long-term expenses when budgeting for a mammogram machine.

Mammogram not elsewhere classified
A mammogram is an X-ray imaging technique used to screen for breast cancer and other abnormalities in one breast. A bilateral mammogram, on the other hand, involves taking images of both breasts simultaneously. This comprehensive approach allows for a better overall assessment of breast health, especially for individuals at higher risk or with a family history of breast cancer.

Most women have no symptoms after a mammogram. Women who find the compression uncomfortable may have some fleeting and minor breast tenderness after a mammogram.
A script for a mammogram may say "malignant neoplasia, other" because that is the purpose of the mammogram. The mammogram is a screening test to look for cancer ("malignant neoplasia") of the breast.
