BreastScreen Victoria is a government funded
mammography screening program in Australia for women without breast
symptoms or breast problems. The Program aims to detect breast
cancer early in its development when treatment can be most effective.
BreastScreen Victoria is specifically provided
for women aged 50-69 because breast x-ray screening has been found
to be the most effective with women in this age group. BreastScreen
Victoria has
a network of services around the state: eight regional assessment
centres, over 40 screening centres and a central appointments
service. We now have two mobile screening
units.
