3D mammography

Our Breast Center now proudly offers 3D mammography. For decades, doctors have been searching for technology to help them find very small cancers or rule out “false positives" and reduce the number of women who are called back for a diagnostic mammogram.

With 3D mammography, your radiologist can see breast tissue detail in a way never before possible. Instead of viewing all the complexities of your breast tissue in a flat image, the doctor can examine the tissue a millimeter at a time. Fine details are more clearly visible, no longer hidden by the tissue above and below.

3D mammography may be used in conjunction with traditional digital mammography as part of your annual screening mammogram to capture more breast images. The combination has been proven to reduce “call-backs."
