An active care mammogram is a type of mammogram performed on individuals who are currently receiving medical treatment or care for a breast-related condition. It is used to monitor the progress of treatment and assess any changes in the breast tissue. Active care mammograms may be recommended for patients undergoing treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or hormone therapy for breast cancer. These mammograms are typically scheduled at regular intervals to track the effectiveness of treatment and detect any new abnormalities or changes in the breast tissue. The results of an active care mammogram are used by healthcare professionals to guide further treatment decisions and ensure the ongoing care and well-being of the patient.
