Freshwipes

Anyone who has had a mammogram knows the discomfort of leftover skin lotion, deodorant, or antiperspirant interfering with the exam — residue that can show up as artifacts on imaging and force a repeat film. Freshwipes solve that problem at the point of care, giving patients a quick, dignified way to clean the underarm and breast area before compression.

This collection features Mammo Freshwipes Mammography Wipes, individually packaged towelettes formulated with a water, alcohol, and potassium sorbate blend. Each scented, non-sterile wipe arrives in its own sealed packet (item MAMWIPE), so imaging centers can hand one to every patient in the changing room or stock a dispenser in the exam suite without worrying about a shared container drying out.

Why does the pre-exam wipe matter so much? Metallic and oil-based particles in deodorants and lotions can mimic microcalcifications on a mammogram. Removing them before compression reduces false readings, cuts down on callbacks, and keeps the workflow moving. The individual-packet format also supports infection-control expectations — one wipe, one patient, no cross-contamination.

These are single-use, disposable towelettes intended for external skin only. Because they're non-sterile, they're purpose-built for skin prep and cleansing rather than clinical wound care. The light scent and pre-moistened texture make them easy for patients to use themselves with minimal instruction from staff.

Radiology departments, women's health clinics, and mobile screening units typically order these by the case to keep every exam room stocked. If you're rounding out your imaging-day supplies, browse related Wipes and general Skin Care options to pair with your Freshwipes order.
