 Women’s health
imaging, concentrating on the health and pathology of
nearly 52% of the total U.S. population, has emerged
as its own subspecialty. Scottsdale Medical Imaging
(SMIL) has stayed at the forefront of women’s
health — specifically breast imaging — since
1980, and we have made it one of the cornerstones of
our practice. At SMIL, female patients will get the
best of both worlds: today’s most innovative medical
imaging exams interpreted by a breast-imaging specialist
along with the empathy and sensitivity afforded by our
registered technologists. We have a dedicated core group
of board-certified radiologists with specialty training
in breast imaging obtained at the country’s top
academic institutions. Plus, each SMIL outpatient imaging
center is accredited for mammography and ultrasound
by the American College of Radiology (ACR) and certified
by the FDA for mammography.
- The American Cancer Society recommends annual screening
mammography beginning
at age 40 in conjunction with annual clinical breast
exam and monthly self-breast exam.
