Pain experienced during mammography can deter women from attending for breast cancer screening. Review of the current literature on pain experienced during mammography reveals three main areas of interest: reports of the frequency of pain, identification of predictors of pain and strategies for responding to pain. Implications of this literature for breast screening programmes include the need for appropriate measurements of pain during mammography that are valid for screening populations, a further understanding of organizational factors involved in screening programmes that may be predictors of pain and for the development of valid strategies for responding to pain within breast screening programmes.
乳房X光检查期间经历的疼痛可能会阻碍女性参加乳腺癌筛查。对当前关于乳房X光检查期间经历的疼痛的文献综述揭示了三个主要关注领域：疼痛频率的报告、疼痛预测因素的识别以及应对疼痛的策略。该文献对乳腺癌筛查计划的影响包括需要在乳房X光检查期间进行适用于筛查人群的有效疼痛测量，进一步了解筛查计划中可能是疼痛预测因素的组织因素，以及制定在乳腺癌筛查计划中应对疼痛的有效策略。
