Our 3-D Ultrasounds are read by experienced radiologists who also write the report. We use only Board Certified Radiologists who have experience with 3-D Ultrasound. From time to time or in special situations we also use radiologists who specialize in breast cancers diagnosis.
Yes, we accept most insurance plans. But it is a good idea to check with your health insurance provider to make sure you do not need prior authorization. If your plan does not provide coverage we have a generous cash discount and payment plans available.
Ultrasound uses no radiation, it is safe for both the mother and baby.
Next Gen 3-D Ultrasound is the ideal breast cancer screening tool for women with breast implants. Ultrasound has no problems differentiating between normal tissue, abnormal tissue and your implant.
Women with dense breasts have a serious problem with diagnostic sensitivity with mammography (catches only 34% of cancers). 3-D Ultrasound has 90% cancer detection sensitivity for women even with very dense breasts.
Women of all ages, but especially women with an elevated risk of breast cancer benefit from the increased clarity and diagnostic sensitivity offered by Automated 3-D Ultrasound Breast Imaging. We are happy to discuss your situation at length. Please give us a call or send us an email soon.
