3D mammography
3D mammography, also known as tomosynthesis, is an advanced breast imaging technique that captures multiple detailed x-ray images from different angles. These images are reconstructed into a clear, three-dimensional picture of the breast tissue, allowing radiologists to better identify abnormalities, such as tumors or cysts, with greater accuracy. Compared to traditional 2D mammography, 3D imaging reduces false positives and the need for additional tests. It’s a safe, effective screening tool that enhances the detection of breast cancer at earlier stages, improving the chances of successful treatment while maintaining comfort during the procedure.
