3D Mammography Technology

3D Mammography aids in earlier detection of cancers, resulting in better treatment options and a higher probability of cure. 3D Mammography, or breast tomosynthesis, utilizes x-rays to produce far more detailed images of breast tissue, allowing radiologists to view the breast in 1-millimeter ‘slices’ rather than just the full thickness of the tissue from the top and side. Additionally, research indicates that radiologists are now able to more accurately interpret results from 3D Mammography in dense breast tissue, which leads to fewer false-positive and false-negative readings.
