Although the amount of radiation administered in mammography is low and approved by the National Department of Health and Human Services, clients who may be pregnant should notify their physicians about their condition. Radiation can pose risks to a developing fetus. A pregnant client may have a mammogram only if there are symptoms of breast cancer or tumor.
