3D DIGITAL MAMMOGRAPHY

Desert Imaging is proud to offer our patients the new Gold Standard in early detection: 3D Mammography. Also known as "tomosynthesis," 3D mammography detects breast cancer sooner, provides enhanced image clarity and reduces the number of unnecessary biopsies. This system's exceptionally sharp images enable our Radiologists to detect an average of 41 percent more invasive breast cancers and reduce callbacks by up to 40 percent.

2D VS 3D

The patient experience is virtually the same compared to the conventional 2D mammogram. The key difference is that the x-ray arm sweeps in a slight arc over the breast to take dozens of images. A computer then converts the images into a stack of thin layers, allowing the Radiologist to review the breast tissue one layer at a time. This process minimizes issues associated with dense tissue that can hide cancers or make it difficult to distinguish normal overlapping breast tissue from tumors.

The best part is the 3D mammogram is covered! As of January I , 2018, all insurance carriers operating in the State of Texas must cover the 3D screening in the same manner as a 2D screening.
