Summary

This study looks at ways to reduce the overuse of mammograms in women aged 75 and older, where screening may not be helpful. Researchers will test a strategy that helps doctors and patients make more informed decisions about mammograms. About 500 women and their doctors will take part to see if the approach lowers unnecessary screenings.
