3D Mammography
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women. Western Arizona Regional Medical Center provides helpful services to educate women on breast health and encourage routine screenings. We utilize 3D imaging technology that may detect breast cancer at the earliest stages, when treatment can be most effective. The combination of caring technologists and imaging technology allows us to deliver quality care.
Mammography is an X-ray exam of the breasts used to screen for or diagnose breast cancer. Western Arizona Regional Medical Center offers digital imaging technology for mammograms. With digital technology, radiologists can zoom in on particular areas or change brightness or contrast for even greater visibility, and results can be read immediately. It can offer numerous benefits to women, including:
-
Improved accuracy of screening exams, especially for women with dense breast tissue.
-
Less radiation exposure.
-
Greater image quality, reducing the need for repeat exams.
Mammograms are performed at the Hancock Imaging Center, located at 1245 Hancock Rd, Bullhead City. To schedule an appointment, please call (928) 704-8889.
