This 3D medical animation provides an anatomical overview of a woman's breast and demonstrates the steps involved in obtaining a mammogram. Each breast is placed between two specialized plates, which then compress to flatten the breast. An x-ray camera then captures pictures of the glandular tissue and ducts, fat, connective tissue, and blood vessels inside the breast. #Mammogram #BreastCancer #CancerScreening ANH00004
