3D mammography brings many benefits to the patient

The new technology allows for a 41% increase in detection of invasive cancers, earlier detection than traditional 2D, and best of all, a 40% decrease in the number of unnecessary callbacks. Even though the new machine has been reported to be more comfortable than getting a traditional mammogram, technologists agree that it's never going to be the most enjoyable thing to do. That, along with the reduction in stress and worry, is why the 40% decrease in callbacks is such an impressive statistic.

One in eight women will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. Eight out of nine women who do develop breast cancer have no family history. The numbers are scary, but there’s more reason than ever to be hopeful: with early detection, the five-year survival rate for breast cancer is almost 100%.

And now - NEW, Better, More Comfortable 3D Mammograms

Mammograms are a woman’s best defense in detecting breast cancer early, but we know that the fear of pain causes some women to delay scheduling their annual mammogram. That’s why we proudly offer the Genius™ Mammography exam that combines better, earlier breast cancer detection with the improved comfort of the SmartCurve™ breast stabilization system.

The best protection is early detection. And now it’s more comfortable.
