Considerations for Muslim women

Mammograms have no halal concern - it is an X-ray test, not an ingested substance. For Muslim women wanting examination by a female technician, most Putrajaya screening centres provide this option. Book and state your preference. The examination usually involves breast exposure - discuss your privacy needs with the screening centre.
