OLD FILMS

These refer to the patient's old mammograms. Old mammograms are VERY important in interpreting the current mammogram. Comparing with old mammograms allows the radiologist to be much more accurate with his/her diagnosis. For example, let us say that there is an asymmetry on the current mammogram. If the asymmetry is unchanged from a mammogram from 3 years ago, the likelihood that it is a cancer is very low.
