Resumo

A mamografia é o método de diagnóstico mais eficaz para deteção precoce de carcinoma da mama. A realização periódica deste exame tem vindo a ser associada a melhores prognósticos como deteção da doença em fases mais precoces e redução de mortalidade. Contudo, a mamografia não é encarada como mais um exame complementar de diagnóstico e constitui, para a maioria das mulheres, uma situação de ameaça. Na verdade, muitas mulheres referem ter experienciado ansiedade, dor ou desconforto durante a realização deste procedimento. Por outro lado, uma percentagem elevada de mulheres falha na realização periódica de mamografias. Este artigo pretende abordar as reações psicológicas associadas ao exame de mamografia e enfatizar a forma como os técnicos de radiologia podem melhorar o atendimento das mulheres que realizam este exame. O papel do técnico de radiologia no fornecimento de informação antes do exame, na criação de uma atmosfera agradável e empática e na utilização de estratégias de confronto para redução de dor e desconforto e na promoção do controlo e autonomia da paciente são alguns dos aspetos abordados.
