Digital Mammography
Professional breast imaging, your first line of defense in women's health.
What is Digital Mammography?
Digital Mammography is a low-dose X-ray examination designed specifically for evaluating breast tissue. It is currently the most effective method for detecting early-stage breast abnormalities and breast cancer.
Digital technology allows radiologists to adjust the brightness and contrast of images on a computer screen, providing a clearer view of minute calcifications or masses.
Preparation & Tips
- ✔ Do not use deodorants, antiperspirants, powders, lotions, or perfumes under your arms or on your breasts (they may appear as spots on the X-ray).
- ✔ We recommend wearing a two-piece outfit (like a top and skirt or trousers) on the day of the exam for convenience.
- ✔ The best time for the examination is 7 to 10 days after your period ends, when your breasts are less tender.
Key Features
- • High-definition digital imaging
