If you’ve had a mammogram in the past year or so, you’ve probably heard about 3D mammography. At Nebraska Medicine, we’ve begun offering this technology for screening and diagnosis – and some insurance companies are now covering it.
The 3D mammography screening experience is similar to a traditional mammogram. During a 3D mammography exam, multiple, low-dose images of the breast are acquired at different angles.
We know that mammography can hurt. We like to think of it as “uncomfortable.” But I think, for some women, it must feel more painful than it does for others.
