Digital mammography of a mammary gland
Digital Mammography with Planmed Clarity 3D – Early Detection of Breast Pathologies!
The Planmed Clarity 3D system with tomosynthesis option allows radiologists to easily differentiate between microcalcifications (smaller than 1 mm) and the thinnest tissues. The procedure evaluates tissue structure, benign and malignant neoplasms, and cysts. It is recommended for early detection of breast cancer.
Why choose mammography at Invitro Diagnostics?
Because:
- The ergonomic design and smart compression system make the procedure painless, while side screens guide the patient during the exam, ensuring comfort throughout;
- The radiation dose is significantly lower compared to previous-generation equipment;
- It is the most informative diagnostic method for detecting neoplasms and cysts – scanning breast tissue in detailed layers;
- The exam takes only 10–15 minutes and delivers fast and accurate results;
- The Planmed Clarity 3D system uses MaxView™ technology, allowing the specialist to visualize breast tissue from any angle. The radiologist also evaluates the pectoral muscles, not just the breast tissue.
Contraindications for Mammography
There are no absolute contraindications for mammography. Relative contraindications include:
- Age under 35 (as breast tissue tends to be denser, making mammography less effective),
- Pregnancy.
* Mammography is recommended for women starting at the age of 40.
