- MammographyBreast implants may make a mammogram somewhat more difficult to read. This does not mean that a mammogram can’t be adequately read, simply that the mammograms must be performed and read by someone experienced in the proper techniques. When a breast implant is present, the breast tissue should be pulled forward in front of the implant before compressing the breast for a mammogram. This maneuver, combined with additional views of the breast if necessary, allows optimal visualization of the breast tissue if you have implants.
