Mammography
Doctors and scientists agree that early detection is the best defense against breast cancer. If we find breast cancer early, before it has spread to lymph nodes, the five-year survival rate is almost 100%. Until now, the best way to do that has been with digital mammography.
While digital mammography is still one of the most advanced early-detection technologies available today, it is only a 2-dimensional picture of the breast. The breast is a 3-dimensional object composed of different structures, such as blood vessels, milk ducts, fat, and ligaments. That’s why we use an advanced technology called breast tomosynthesis, which has been shown in clinical studies to be superior to digital mammography.
