anormal, muchas pacientes tienen que pagar de su bolsillo por pruebas adicionales y estudios de imagen. Estas
barreras económicas muchas veces causan retrasos en los controles médicos y en futuras mamografías, lo que
puede llevar a que el cáncer se detecte en etapas más avanzadas y a un aumento en los gastos de salud.
