Free screening mammograms for your eligible patients

BreastScreen Queensland (BSQ) provides women with free breast screening and assessment services.

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Australian women. One in 7 women develop breast cancer in their lifetime.* Early detection of breast cancer is vital to provide greater chance of survival, with more treatment options available to patients when the cancer is found in its early stages.
