Mammography
Screening 3D mammography Alexandria LA
Alexandria Women’s Center is proud to be the only OB/GYN clinic in Central Louisiana to offer the convenience of in-house digital screening mammography in addition to 3D mammography. 3D mammographies have been shown to increase breast cancer detection while decreasing recalls and biopsies because it eliminates the view of some overlapping tissue and may better clarify the reading of the mammogram for the radiologist. With a state of the art GE Sonographer digital unit, staffed by licensed/certified technicians with over 35 years of combined clinical experience, our clinic has performed over 15,000 studies to date. Our facility is ACR (American College of Radiology) accredited and all studies are interpreted professionally by local board-certified radiologists. We have brought this service to our patients not just through our strong commitment to women’s breast health but by a desire to make the experience convenient, private, and efficient. With testing performed the same day as yearly wellness exams you get more timely results, faster interventions, and ultimately more peace of mind.
