Digital Mammography.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women and
the second leading cause of cancer deaths in women
today. Approximately 190,000 new cases of invasive
breast cancer are diagnosed among women in the United
States every year.
The early detection of breast cancer can be a key to
survival.
Digital mammography is the most advanced tool in the
early detection of breast cancer.

Traditional stereotactic biopsy requires a mammogram
film be exposed, developed and then reviewed, greatly
increasing the time before the breast biopsy can be
completed. With digital mammography once the pictures or
images have been taken they can be electronically
manipulated - the physician can zoom in, magnify, and
optimize different parts of breast tissue without having
to take an additional image.
This results in
unprecedented quality, shorter examination times and significantly improved
patient comfort and convenience since the time the patient must remain still is
much shorter.
