What is A 3D Mammogram?

At Breast Diagnostic Specialists we utilise a technology called breast tomosynthesis, also known as a 3D Mammogram. By providing 3D mammography we offer you access to an innovative and effective breast imaging technology here on the Sunshine Coast. During your mammogram the tomosynthesis machine sweeps in a small arc above your breast. Taking images in as small as 1mm 'slices' allows our specialists to examine your breast tissue, one layer at a time, like turning pages in a book. We are proud to offer 3D Mammography for both Screening and Diagnostic Mammograms as part of a proactive approach to breast health. For information about breast cancer click here.
