IF THE SHOE FITS: Preparing For Your Mammogram


Preparing For Your Mammogram

- HealthDay News, January 22, 2007

Editorial Note: Being a curious sort, The Stiletto once asked a mammography technician how the procedure is performed on flat chested women. Those of us who are well endowed dread this test because our boobs have to be smashed between two X-ray plates until almost completely flattened – and it hurts! Well, it turns out that it’s rather difficult to do this test on a woman with tiny titties. Technicians will actually use a tongue depressor to spread what little mammary tissue there is onto the X-ray plate. The Stiletto would much rather suffer the pain of smashed boobs than the humiliation of being handled by an ice cream stick.
