Characteristics Associated with Mammography Screening among Both Hispanic and Non-Hispanic White Women

Abstract

Ethnic-specific characteristics appear to explain differences in mammography adherence among Hispanic and NHW women. Disparities in screening rates, late-stage disease and breast cancer mortality that impact Hispanic women could potentially be addressed more effectively by interventions that specifically target the unique characteristics of the Hispanic population.
