Dr. Sneha Abhishek KiniMammography
Mammography is a specialized medical imaging technique that uses low-dose X-rays to examine the human breast. It plays a crucial role in the early detection of breast cancer, often identifying tumors that are too small to be felt during a physical examination. This screening tool is essential for women's health and has significantly contributed to managing breast cancer.
Modern mammography includes both screening (early detetction) and diagnostic (problem-solving) examinations. Advanced techniques such as 3D Tomosynthesis create multiple thin slices through breast tissue for better visualization. It improves detection rates, especially in dense breasts with reduced false positives.
