Benefits and Risks- Breast Tomosynthesis (3D)

Benefits

  • Breast Tomosynthesis (3D) exams provide a way for SMIL radiologists to view breast abnormalities from all angles to help diagnose problems.
  • When cancers are small, the woman has more treatment options and a cure is more likely.

Risks

  • There are risks associated with any exposure to radiation. However, the benefits outweigh the risk when mammography is done accurately using the lowest possible dose.
  • Breast Tomosynthesis (3D) is not recommended for women who are pregnant or could possibly be pregnant.

I have to give a 5-star review due to the professionalism and care of the staff at SMIL (DV location), they are all very polite and welcoming. Dr. Hedieh Saghari on the other hand is not friendly at all and truly lacks compassion. Although a busy office, I was able to get an appointment quickly and will likely use their services again. I would only ask to see a different Radiologist.
