  • offer annual mammography to all patients with early breast cancer, including DCIS, until they enter the NHS Breast Screening Programme/Breast Test Wales Screening Programme
    • patients diagnosed with early breast cancer who are already eligible for screening should have annual mammography for 5 years

  • do not perform mammography of the ipsilateral soft tissues after mastectomy

  • do not routinely use ultrasound or MRI for post-treatment surveillance in people who have had treatment for invasive breast cancer or DCIS.
