SB1084 requires mammography facilities to provide patients with breast density information and related notices.
SB1084 amends the Health and Safety Code to mandate that mammography facilities, upon completing a mammogram, must provide patients with breast density information. Facilities must also include specific notices in mammography reports based on the patient's breast density. For patients with dense breast tissue, the notice should inform them that dense tissue can obscure abnormalities and may benefit from supplemental screening tests.
