In 80% of women, repeat SCREENING intervals was more than 3 years. The average age of the first MAMMOGRAPHY was 44.1± 9.2 years.68.4% of women noted that SCREENING is because of checking their health status.65.3% of women have announced that they did not do SCREENING because they had no problem, and 3.4% have said that they did not have enough information about SCREENING.Conclusions: The findings of this study revealed that most women do not realize the need for SCREENING and doing that on regular basis.
