Mammography / Woman's Imaging
|
Mammography
Mammography is an X-ray of the breasts performed to detect
breast tumors when they are too small to be detected by physical
examination. These small tumors can be the first finding of
early-stage breast cancer. Our subspecialized radiologists
interpret approximately 20,000 mammograms, 3,000 breast ultrasounds
and perform approximately 1,000 interventional procedures
annually.
For a more detailed explanation of Mammography, visit RadiologyInfo.org,
the public information Web site developed and funded by the
American College of Radiology (ACR) and the Radiological Society
of North America (RSNA).
