When will the screening centre be in my local area?
Frequently asked questions
I use a wheelchair. Is the screening centre easily accessible?
Yes. However, please do contact our information line about this. We will then make a separate appointment for you.
Why am I invited to a different place for the breast examination? Previously, I could have the examination done in a mobile research center in my own hometown.
Health screening must be the same for all women in the Netherlands. That is not the case at the moment. In one region, women have to wait (much) longer for a breast examination than in another region.
To reduce the regional differences, we have planned the deployment of the mobile research centers differently. As a result, your examination will take place at a different location.
The advantage of this is that you don't have to wait as long for the breast examination. However, it may mean that you have to travel further and longer to the research center than you are used to.
