The report also suggests there is little benefit to mammography screenings for women above the age of 75. <p> Although the study admits there is convincing evidence that mammogram screenings reduce breast cancer mortality, the USPSTF based their recommendation on the possibility that breast cancer screenings could result in psychological harm, unnecessary imaging tests and biopsies in women without cancer.
