3D Mammography - Tomosynthesis Breast Imaging
The McLaren Imaging Center offers the Genius™ 3D Mammography system as part of its ongoing commitment to provide the most clinically advanced services for patients.
Utilizing advanced breast tomosynthesis technology, Genius 3D exams are clinically proven to significantly increase the detection of breast cancers, while simultaneously decreasing the number of women asked to return for additional testing. It is also the only 3D mammography exam approved by the FDA as superior for women with dense breasts.
The Genius 3D Mammography exam has revolutionized how breast cancer is detected by providing a better option for women of all breast densities compared to 2D alone. Researchers have found that:
- The Genius 3D Mammography exam finds 20-65% more invasive breast cancers compared to 2D alone, an average increase of 41%.
- The Genius 3D Mammography exam reduces callbacks by up to 40% compared to 2D alone.
