We are proud industry leaders in 3D mammography, offering the highest level of breast radiology care with an unrivalled use of state-of-the-art mammogram technology, supported by our team of fully qualified, dedicated mammographers. This ensures the highest quality care across our clinics to help in the fight against breast cancer.
We have a team of specialised breast radiologists across our mammography clinics. This means that if you have a mammogram at our Mitcham, Box Hill or Wagga Wagga clinics, there will be a breast radiologist (specialist) to review your mammogram straight after you have it, prepare the report, and be available for your referring doctor to talk to if required.
Our ongoing leadership in 3D mammography includes using the latest state-of-the-art technology
3D mammography – We offer high definition 3D mammography (breast tomosynthesis), which is standard for all patients, and high definition synthetic 2D mammography, which minimises radiation dose. Breast tomosynthesis uses high-powered computing to convert digital breast images into a stack of very thin layers or ‘slices’— building what is essentially a ‘three dimensional mammogram’. This gives our radiologist breast tissue detail in a way never possible before, to enable the breast tissue to be examined a millimeter at a time.
Volpara – VolparaTM is software that can accurately and objectively measure mammographic breast density, and we provide the VolparaTM measurement of breast density on your mammogram report. Mammogram reports from other radiology clinics often do not give a clear subjective measure of breast density, let alone an objective measure such as a VolparaTM score. It is important to know your breast density, as having a high breast density for your age increases your risk of developing breast cancer.
TransparaTM Artificial Intelligence – Improves the detection of breast cancer on mammograms by acting as an ‘extra pair of eyes’. We are the first site in Australia to offer this technology. Studies show TransparaTM improves both sensitivity and specificity in radiologist reporting of mammograms.
Contrast Enhanced Mammography (CEM) – Mammography with an intravenous injection of contrast, which provides additional physiological information in the breast and further increases the detection rate of breast cancer over conventional mammography. CEM can be performed in conjunction with 3D mammography.
