My daughter just got done with her mammo-tech training and wants to perform her first exam on me; should I let her?

Question

I think it would be weird performing such an exam on a family member but what do you think?

Does she have the x-ray machine at home because that's really what she needs to get a 100% accurate reading?

It's usually considered unethical for a doctor or nurse to treat a family member; I would assume that the same considerations apply to medical technologists. Also, I would not want a total beginner to be operating dangerous machinery that could over-squish my boob, whether kinfolk or not.
