In 2022, medical facilities in Odesa conducted 13,400 mammographic studies, leading to the identification of over 500 suspicions of oncological pathologies. Women with detected anomalies were referred for further consultations with specialists.
Mammography is a crucial cancer screening tool that helps diagnose breast tumors at early stages and detect precancerous conditions timely to initiate treatment. Women over 40 are advised to undergo a mammogram annually, even in the absence of symptoms.
Free mammography is part of the state medical guarantee program and is funded by the National Health Service of Ukraine for women aged 40 and above upon referral from their family or treating doctor.
Medical institutions in Odesa have been equipped with modern mammography machines funded by the city budget, and a unique Family Health Center has been established at the consultative-diagnostic center No. 6 for comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of breast diseases.
