Digital Mammography
Women’s Imaging Centre-Lafayette utilizes state of the art Digital Mammography technology on all screening and diagnostic mammography exams. Digital Mammography is different than standard film mammography in the way the images are recorded, viewed and manipulated by the Radiologist, and stored. Since the Radiologist can electronically manipulate the images brightness, contrast, and magnification, abnormal areas may be more clearly visualized. Also, there is no waiting for film to develop, which means shorter exam times. There are also less re takes do to over or underexposure, saving time, and reducing radiation exposure.
