3D MAMMOGRAPHY AND BREAST CARE

Comprehensive Breast Care at Alfa Diagnostic

When it comes to breast health, early detection is essential. At Alfa Diagnostic, we are proud to offer comprehensive breast care services in one convenient and trusted location. From 3D mammograms to ultrasound and breast MRI, our mission is to provide patients with the most accurate results using state-of-the-art technology and a compassionate approach.

Why Breast Care Matters

Breast cancer prevention and early diagnosis significantly increase the chances of successful treatment and recovery. That’s why routine screening is not just recommended—it’s essential. At Alfa Diagnostic, we are committed to empowering women with access to high-quality, efficient, and timely diagnostic services.

Advanced Breast Imaging Services in One Place

We take pride in offering a full range of breast imaging services under one roof:

– 3D Mammogram (Digital Breast Tomosynthesis): Whether you need a screening or diagnostic mammogram, our 3D technology offers enhanced clarity and detail, improving cancer detection rates, especially for women with dense breast tissue.

– Breast Ultrasound: A complementary tool to mammography, breast ultrasound is particularly effective in evaluating lumps, dense breasts, or abnormal findings.

– Breast MRI with AI Integration: Our AI-powered MRI software enhances image quality, shortens scan time, and provides greater comfort for patients with claustrophobia. It’s an ideal solution for high-risk screenings or evaluating complex cases.

Top Equipment and Accredited Specialists

At Alfa Diagnostic, we’ve invested in high-definition imaging equipment to deliver results you and your healthcare providers can trust. Our breast MRI, mammogram, and ultrasound systems meet the highest clinical standards.

Our board-certified radiologists and experienced technologists hold multiple accreditations and bring decades of experience in breast imaging. Their dedication ensures that every patient receives expert care, precise interpretations, and timely results.

The Power of Prevention

Early detection saves lives. Regular breast screenings, especially for women over 40 or those with a family history, are crucial for identifying potential issues before symptoms appear.

By choosing Alfa Diagnostic, you’re taking a proactive step in protecting your health. Our team is here to guide you every step of the way—with professionalism, empathy, and expertise.

3D mammography is an FDA-approved technology that takes multiple images, or X-rays, of breast tissue to recreate a 3-dimensional picture of the breast. It’s different from traditional mammography in that traditional mammography obtains just a single image.

These multiple images of breast tissue slices give doctors a clearer image of breast masses. It makes it easier to detect breast cancer.

 

Preparing for the Mammography exam

 

  1. Preparing for a mammogram can help to reduce anxiety about the procedure and provide more accurate results. Consider these important tips when you prepare for your next mammogram appointment.
  2. Skip the deodorant that day. Particles in these products might show up on your mammogram and cause undue alarm or confusion.
  3. Schedule the test to occur one week after your period. If you haven’t gone through menopause, your breasts are most likely to be sensitive or tender the week before and the week during your period.
  4. Consider over the counter pain medication if you find that having a mammogram is uncomfortable. Check with your doctor before taking any new medications.
  5. Wear a two-piece outfit. That way you’ll only have to remove your top and bra.
  6. Leave any neck jewelry at home.
  7. Bring any prior mammogram images.
  8. Eat and drink as you normally would before having a mammogram.
  9. Take your daily medications as usual.
  10. Consider reducing your intake of caffeinated beverages and chocolate 3-4 days before your scheduled appointment. Caffeine may make your breasts feel more tender.
  11. Bring your doctor’s written order/prescription for the mammogram study.
  12. Bring your ID and insurance information. You will check-in before the mammogram is performed. The process involves confirming your identity and your insurance information.
  13. Tell the radiology technologist about any physical limitations. Mammogram pictures are obtained with you in the standing position, though if you are unable to stand the machine can be adjusted with you in the seated position. Describe any breast problems or symptoms to the technologist performing the exam.
  14. Wear flat shoes, sneakers, or low heels. You will be standing for your mammogram, and may be asked to lean forward or backward for best positioning. High heels may throw you off balance.
