The client should be reminded not to use creams,powders,or deodorant on breast or underarm areas before mammography because these products can show on the x-ray.The test should be rescheduled if any possibility exists that the client is pregnant.Women can experience discomfort as the breasts are compressed.The test is generally much less than an hour in duration.
