A breast screening unit will keep a woman’s mammogram for at least eight years. This then allows them to compare the latest mammogram with those that were taken previously. The NHS Breast Screening Programme regularly reviews all screening records, including mammograms, as part of its aim to offer a quality service and to help increase the expertise of its specialist staff.
