How 3D Mammography Is Used
Screening mammograms
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends that individuals assigned female at birth begin annual screening at age 40. Those with a strong family history of breast cancer or genetic mutations may be advised to start screening earlier.
Diagnostic mammograms
If you have symptoms such as a new lump, breast pain, or skin changes, your provider may order a 3D diagnostic mammogram in Phoenix. This technology helps clarify findings, rule out cancer, or determine whether a biopsy is necessary.
Tomosynthesis Technology
Tomosynthesis provides the fastest, highest-resolution 3D breast images, along with mammograms that many patients find more comfortable than traditional methods.
HOLOGIC 3D CLARITY HD
- Produces images with twice the tomosynthesis resolution of standard 3D mammography.
- Detects 20–65% more invasive breast cancers compared to 2D mammography alone.
3D Breast Biopsy
This advanced 3D-guided biopsy technology helps radiologists locate and sample very small or subtle areas of concern seen on mammography.
- Accurately targets tiny calcifications and subtle lesions.
- Ideal for findings that may only appear on tomosynthesis.
SmartCurve™ Breast Stabilization System
- Designed to make compression more comfortable.
- Proven to reduce discomfort in 93% of patients who typically experience moderate to severe pain with standard compression.
