Changing the way women think about mammography.
Mammograms
are vital to a woman’s health.They enable healthcare providers to detect
masses that simply can’t be felt, and by doing so, they’ve saved
countless lives through early detection. However, mammograms have never been
particularly convenient or comfortable. Women often cite inconvenience as the
primary reason for not getting a mammogram.“I simply don’t have
time,”they say. Advanced Imaging has changed that with a facility and
technology that improve patient comfort,shorten exam times and facilitate healthcare
provider consultation.
Twice the resolution in half the time.
Improving
exams begins with incorporating the latest technology from GE:full-field Digital
Mammography. Advanced Imaging is the only center in Western Montana to offer
this amazing new technology. It cuts compression and scan times in half while
producing images that are clearer,more detailed and superior in every way to
traditional mammography. The result is remarkably short exam times.On average,a
mammogram at Advanced Imaging takes just 15 minutes – from the time you
park your car until you leave the Center. So much for “I don’t have
time to get a mammogram.” The technology also eliminates film. Images
are stored digitally and can be accessed virtually by the referring healthcare
provider from their offices or laptops. Plus,all mammograms taken at Advanced
Imaging are read promptly by local radiologists.

mammography requires breast compression for clear pictures,but capturing images
takes about half the time. A shorter exam is a more comfortable exam.

images and transfers them to a computer. There,they can be electronically
enhanced. Radiologists can zoom in,magnify and optimize areas of the breast
tissue using just four images.

stored digitally.This results in sharper images with no loss of resolution.It
