Advanced 3D Mammography Technology

Advanced imaging technology like 3D mammography is a revolutionary advancement in breast imaging. At Columbus OB/GYN, we’re proud to offer this cutting-edge technology to our patients.

Benefits Over Traditional 2D Mammography

Traditional 2D mammography has been a reliable tool for many years, but 3D mammography takes breast imaging to a whole new level.

Increased Accuracy

3D mammography captures multiple images from different angles, providing a more comprehensive view of the breast tissue.

Reduced False Positives

The detailed imaging allows for better differentiation between benign and malignant tissues, reducing the likelihood of false positives.

This technological leap enhances diagnostic accuracy and minimizes the stress and uncertainty that often accompany traditional 2D mammograms.

Ideal Candidates for 3D Mammography

While 3D mammography is an excellent tool for all women, it’s particularly beneficial for specific groups.

Dense Breast Tissue

Women with dense breast tissue can benefit immensely from 3D mammography's detailed imaging.

High-Risk Factors

Those with a family history of breast cancer or other high-risk factors are ideal candidates for this advanced screening.

FAQs

While the experience varies from person to person, most women report feeling some discomfort rather than pain during a mammogram. The breast is compressed between two plates to obtain a clear image, which can cause a sensation of pressure. Rest assured, our skilled technicians aim to make the process as comfortable as possible for you.

The frequency of mammograms depends on several factors, including age, family history, and other risk factors. Generally, women aged 40 and above are advised to have an annual exam. However, your healthcare provider will offer personalized recommendations based on your health profile.

Most health insurance plans cover the cost of mammograms as a preventive service, often without a co-pay or deductible. However, it’s essential to check with your insurance provider for specific details about your coverage. At Columbus OB/GYN, we can help you understand your insurance benefits.

In Ohio, a prescription is generally not required for a screening mammogram, but it is advisable to consult your healthcare provider for a referral. Diagnostic mammograms, usually done to investigate specific symptoms, require a prescription.
