Breast cancer in Mexico is a major health concern. Since there is no precise information about mammography use in regular population of women insured by the Instituto de Seguridad y Servicios Sociales para los Trabajadores del Estado (ISSSTE), we carried out this study. Materials and methods: This was a cross-sectional study, where women insured by the ISSSTE who attended the Hospital General Tacuba at Mexico City were assessed. The study evaluated the regularity of mammography use, and whether this was accordingly to their demographic features. Results: Our sample was of 327 women between 40 and 69 years. There were 146 users (44.7%) of mammography during the past two years. Mammography using during the two previous years, by age group was: 40-49 years, 24.6%; 50-59 years, 59.5%, and 60-69 years, 50.49%. Conclusions: Our results suggest that in women insured by the ISSSTE of an urban city there are still challenges for the extensive use of mammography.
