Image for Digital Mammography

Digital Mammography

Digital mammography is a breast imaging technique that uses digital technology to take detailed images of breast tissue. Unlike traditional film mammography, digital mammograms capture images that can be easily enhanced, stored, and shared. This method allows radiologists to detect abnormalities, such as tumors, more accurately and quickly. The process involves positioning the breast between two plates for compression, which helps produce clearer images. Digital mammography is widely used for early detection of breast cancer, contributing to better outcomes through timely diagnosis and treatment.
