Abstract: A representative sample of women living in metropolitan Los Angeles were asked what they heard and what they believed about mammography and whether they would obtain a mammogram if their doctor advised it. Forty percent of these women said they had not heard of mammography even after the procedure was described. Few of those who had heard of mammography had negative feelings about it. Further, 93 percent of the overall sample said they would obtain a mammogran if their physician recommended it.
