摘要
Background. In spite of the fact that the value of mammography has been demonstrated, it remains underused by those in need, such as older women and minority women. A consideration of lifespan and ethnicity issues may help in designing interventions designed to overcome the barriers women may face at different stages in their lives as well as the barriers that may be most salient for minority women.
