3D Tomosynthesis Advantage
This advanced technology acquires multiple thin slices of the breast tissue by moving the X-ray tube in an arc, creating 3D images that significantly improve cancer detection rates compared to conventional 2D mammography.
Key Benefits:
- Improved accuracy in dense breast tissue
- Reduced need for additional imaging
- Earlier detection of small lesions
- Lower recall rates compared to 2D mammography
Screening Guidelines
At Alfa Imaging & Diagnostic Labs, we recommend annual mammography screenings for:
40+
All Women
Beginning at age 40
High Risk
More frequent screening if indicated
2 Year
Or as recommended by your physician
Important:
Mammography should be performed even when no lump is palpable, as early-stage cancers may not be detectable by physical examination alone.
Image-Guided Biopsy Services

Clip Placement :
During breast biopsy procedures, a tiny marker clip may be placed at the biopsy site. This allows precise localization if surgical follow-up is needed, ensuring complete removal of the area in question.
The clip is made of surgical stainless steel or titanium and causes no discomfort or interference with future mammograms.
