3D Mammography

Request Your Mammogram

Women who are 40 and older and considered at average risk for breast cancer are encouraged to begin yearly mammogram screenings. Regular screening remains one of the most effective ways to detect breast cancer early.

Mammography is the gold standard for breast cancer detection and diagnosis. When enhanced with 3D mammography, also known as tomosynthesis, screening becomes even more effective, particularly for individuals with dense breast tissue.

While traditional 2D mammography captures a single flat image of the breasts, 3D mammograms take multiple low-dose X-ray images from different angles. These images are reconstructed into thin, layered “slices,” allowing radiologists to see breast tissue with far greater detail. This improved clarity increases the likelihood of identifying small or hidden cancers.

Despite the additional imaging, 3D mammography uses a very low dose of radiation, similar to standard mammograms, keeping exposure extremely minimal.
