Digital Breast Tomosynthesis at Ascot Central

We are delighted to now offer a choice of traditional digital mammography and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) at our Ascot Central branch.

In brief

Digital tomosynthesis is the latest in breast imaging technology.
While a mammogram provides a 2D image of the breast, tomosynthesis creates highly detailed, multi-planar images.
Positioning is similar to that of a mammogram.
The resulting images provide the best possible view of all the breast tissue, with greater cancer detection across all ages and breast densities.
It has been proven to have a higher cancer detection rate and a reduced recall rate without any added risk or radiation to the patient.
