What is Digital Mammography?
Digital Mammography is a state-of-the-art breast imaging technique that uses low-dose X-rays to produce high-resolution images of breast tissue. This advanced technology allows for clearer and more detailed images, making it an essential tool in detecting breast cancer and other abnormalities at an early stage.
Why Choose Digital Mammography?
An Orthopantomogram (OPG) is a specialized panoramic dental X-ray that provides a comprehensive view of the entire mouth, including the teeth, jawbone, and surrounding structures. OPG is widely used in dental and maxillofacial assessments to detect:
- Early Detection: Identifies even the smallest abnormalities that may not be detectable through physical exams.
- Enhanced Accuracy: High-quality imaging ensures better visualization of dense breast tissue and subtle changes.
- Patient Comfort: Faster imaging process with minimal discomfort during the procedure.
- Low Radiation Exposure: Ensures safety without compromising image quality.
- Advanced Screening Options: Compatible with 3D mammography (tomosynthesis) for more detailed evaluations when needed.
Who Should Get a Digital Mammogram?
Digital mammography is recommended for:
- Women aged 40 and above as part of routine screening.
- Individuals with a family history of breast cancer.
- Women experiencing breast pain, lumps, or unusual changes in breast tissue.
- Follow-up assessments for previously detected abnormalities.
