Breast Ultrasound

SMIL offers a breast ultrasound exam to determine the nature of a breast abnormality. The primary use of a breast ultrasound exam today is to help diagnose breast abnormalities detected during a physical exam such as breast lumps, breast pain or nipple discharge. A breast ultrasound exam also characterizes potential abnormalities seen on other breast scans.

Breast ultrasounds help supplement mammography by detecting breast cancers that may not be visible with mammography due to dense tissue in the breasts and other factors. A breast ultrasound exam can be offered as a screening tool for women who are at high risk for breast cancer and for women who are pregnant and cannot be exposed to radiation used in other breast scans.

Learn how to prepare for a breast ultrasound exam in the preparations for a breast ultrasound exam section.

DOC JOHN AND ALLISION! Combat in Iraq tore me apart, 15 years later and countless doctors god must of intervened and sent me to you. I'm honored to meet and have been personally, and medically, helped/saved by you. Sherlock and Watson, the dynamic duo, in just a few minutes last week they uncovered a 15 year old issue that months ago lead me to flat lining at the ER in front of my wife. No one, no doc, no specialist could find the cause of blood loss and rudely dismissed my wife everytime she'd explain it's Been 15 years since hernia surgery from war related wounds. Back then had no alternative like the life long surgery today. 5 years been trying to prove the surgery went wrong or it was time for the next surgery. But no doctor could find proof.untill Doc JOHN and Allison. I've been stuck inside a prison inside my body for I don't know how long now. Until these 2 patriots finally released me. So I can now finally get the help needed to live a normal life. Which has been a distant dream for years turned reality. Something I can see, reach and grasp. My entire family thanks you, my wife thanks you, I thank you.

My experience at TPK SMIL for my mammogram was painless and efficient. The tech treated me with respect and compassion. I was in and out within 25 minutes.
