There have been many advancements in Medical Technology. Medical Fraternity endeavors to make cutting edge imaging equipment and test for predicting disease at the earliest possible moment. 3D mammography to be better than traditional 2D Mammography. We have listed the significant advantages of 3D over conventional 2D Mammography.
1. Fewer callbacks
Whenever you call back women for further imaging process, to spot the abnormalities, they rarely appear. With the inception of 3D Mammography, the callback rate has been reduced by 29.7%.
2. Less Radiation Exposure
With the introduction of 3D Mammography, there has been a 32% decrease in the number of additional images obtained, due to which patients are less exposed to radiation.
3. Higher Cancer Detection
According to findings, 16% of invasive cancer remains undetected with 2D Mammography, but this Undetection rate has been reduced to 3% with 3D Mammography. 3d Mammography has dramatically improved the possibility of detecting as compared with conventional 2D Mammography.
4. Better for dense breast tissue
It showed significate good results in women with dense breast tissue. Dense breast tissue depicts the proportion of fat, connective tissue, and glands on the 3D mammogram. It just portrays how the breasts look on a mammogram, not how they feel. A dense breast consists of a large number of glandular and connective tissues and less number of
5. Better Visualization fatty tissues.
With 3D Mammography, radiologists screen the better visualization of breast and depict any architectural distortion with them. It is observed that 47% of women who Undergone surgery for architectural distortion was estimated to have breast cancer.
