Mammogram should be done if she haven’t done it before in last two years . Apart from this routine blood urine examination can be done . CA -125 another blood test can be added . Other than that no need to do any specific test at this age , because as she is 71 years , it always better to avoid unnecessary tests, If she is having any other symptoms specifically we can go for investigation based on the symptoms .
