    Mammography Technician

    (Mammo Tech) is a specialized radiologic technologist who operates

    mammography equipment

    to perform diagnostic imaging procedures for detecting breast abnormalities. These images, known as

    mammograms , help to screen for breast cancer and other breast-related conditions.

    Mammography Technicians are trained to perform the procedure, ensure patient comfort, maintain a high standard of image quality, and assist in patient care throughout the process.


    Key Responsibilities :

    Performing Mammograms :
    Position and prepare patients for mammography exams, ensuring they are comfortable and properly positioned.

    Operate

    mammography equipment

    to capture clear, accurate images of the breast tissue.


    Ensure proper compression of the breast during imaging to obtain the best possible images while minimizing discomfort for the patient.

    Assist patients with undressing and putting on a gown, as well as positioning the breast for imaging.

    Perform

    digital mammograms

    and, if necessary, additional views to obtain complete images of the breast.


    Patient Care and Comfort :
    Greet patients and explain the procedure, answering any questions to alleviate anxiety.

    Educate patients on the importance of mammograms, helping them understand the process and ensuring they know what to expect.

    Reassure patients during the exam, maintaining a calm and empathetic demeanor.

    Monitor patients for discomfort or any issues during the procedure and adjust accordingly.

    Quality Control and Image Evaluation :
    Review mammograms for clarity and completeness, ensuring the images meet diagnostic standards.

    Ensure that images are free from artifacts or distortions that could hinder diagnosis.


    Work closely with radiologists to ensure that high-quality images are produced and evaluate whether additional views or retakes are necessary.

    Assist in conducting

    breast ultrasound

    or

    stereotactic biopsy procedures

    if needed to further investigate abnormalities found in mammograms.


    Equipment Maintenance and Safety :
    Ensure proper operation of mammography equipment, troubleshooting any technical issues as needed.

    Perform routine maintenance and cleaning of the equipment, following safety protocols and manufacturer guidelines.

    Follow safety standards for radiation protection to minimize patient and staff exposure.

    Ensure the machine is calibrated and functioning correctly to provide optimal images.


    Record Keeping and Documentation :
    Maintain patient records, including medical history, previous mammogram results, and details of the current exam.

    Document relevant patient information, such as imaging results, positioning, and any special instructions or requests from the physician.

    Ensure all procedures, patient information, and images are properly logged into the hospital's

    Electronic Health Records (EHR)

    system.


    Collaboration with Medical Team :
    Communicate effectively with radiologists and physicians regarding images that may require further attention or additional imaging.


    Assist in explaining test results to patients, helping them understand what comes next in the process if further evaluation or follow-up is needed.


    Work closely with the healthcare team to ensure continuity of care for the patient, especially if abnormal results are found.


    Adherence to Safety and Regulatory Standards :
    Ensure compliance with

    Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)

    regulations regarding patient privacy and confidentiality.

    Follow all

    radiation safety protocols

    to protect both patients and staff from unnecessary exposure.

    Adhere to

    American College of Radiology (ACR)

    and


    FDA
    guidelines for mammography procedures and safety.


    Patient Education :
    Provide patients with post-exam care instructions and answer any questions regarding the results, follow-up, or potential next steps.


    Educate patients on the importance of regular mammograms and breast health, including self-examination and lifestyle factors that affect breast health.
