Screening mammograms are essential for postmenopausal women because breast cancer risk rises with age. Ministry of Health Malaysia guidelines recommend every 2 years for women 50-74. Private hospitals in Petaling Jaya like Sunway Medical Centre, KPJ Damansara Specialist Hospital offer 2D digital mammograms at RM200-380 and 3D tomosynthesis (DBT - more sensitive for dense tissue common in Asian women) at RM350-550. 3D tomosynthesis available here. For Muslim women, most Petaling Jaya screening centres have female technicians for the exam - state this preference at booking. Exam tips: no deodorant or lotion on exam day, wear two-piece for convenience, results reported in 2-7 working days. Women with very dense tissue or family breast cancer history should consider 3D tomosynthesis (30% higher detection) or additional tests like breast ultrasound - discuss with radiologist or obstetrics and gynaecology specialist.
