Which breast imaging exams are offered at Radiology Imaging Associates?

The practice provides three essential breast imaging exams, each serving a unique purpose:

Mammogram

Mammography is the cornerstone of breast imaging at Radiology Imaging Associates, using low-dose X-rays to capture detailed images of the breast tissue. It is a widely used and effective screening tool for detecting abnormalities.

Screening Breast Ultrasound

This noninvasive imaging technique at Radiology Imaging Associates employs sound waves to further evaluate breast abnormalities identified during a mammogram. Screening breast ultrasound is valuable in providing additional insights, particularly for some types of breast tissue.

Breast MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)

A breast MRI generates detailed images of the breast tissue using magnetic fields and radio waves. This exam offers a complete view, contributing crucial information for diagnosis and treatment.

The focus on these three specific breast imaging exams at Radiology Imaging Associates reflects a commitment to providing comprehensive, tailored diagnostic services.
