Edward's state-of-the-art digital mammography technology uses low-dose radiation to screen for breast abnormalities. With digital mammography, mammograms are performed the same way as conventional mammograms, the difference is in how the image is acquired and read.
The benefits of digital mammography also include faster image acquisition, shorter exam times, easier image storage, and ability to transmit images over a network.
There are three steps to breast health: a monthly breast self-exam, annual clinical breast exam, and routine mammography. Practicing all three will help you detect breast cancer at its earliest, most treatable stage. Are you at higher risk? The Breast Aware assessment takes about five minutes and provide a quick response about your health as well as action steps if you are identified as being at risk.
