title: Mammography in women under 50.
abstract: In this article, the evidence relating to the evaluation of effectiveness of early detection of breast cancer in women age 40 to 49 is reviewed, in light of the considerable controversy that has arisen over whether women in this age group should be given routine mammography screening. Of necessity, evidence is also provided on its effectiveness in older women, to facilitate comparison.
