Description

Description (Service)

Breast screening for early detection of breast cancer in women.

Screening includes mammography (x-rays of breast tissue) plus tomosynthesis. Screening results are sent to both the woman and her doctor.

Women who receive normal results are automatically recalled for their next screening appointment. Women who receive abnormal results are referred to their doctor for further investigation, or are referred directly for additional tests.

The OBSP is administered by Cancer Care Ontario through its regional cancer centres.
