New breast imaging - check this out!
 

Found this by accident - but looks to be quite promising. A whole new technique.

They have a list of the centers using their machine.

Anybody tried it yet??

Thanks, Steph!
 

Now that I know my risk factor for a new cancer is high due to breast density (not to mention all of the scar tissue and clips in my affected, irradiated dense breast), I have been looking for a technology to supplement standard mammography, which I no longer trust. There happens to be a facility near me offering this service. I printed out their info to take with me to my follow up visit with the surgeon in 6 weeks.

Hopeful

Steph,

Thank you so much for posting this...I am one of those who needs Breast MRI's and I have to travel hours away to get it. Turns out the machine you are talking about here is about 45 min. away!

Thank you!

very interesting, thanks for posting about it.

I go for my digital mamo tomorrow... I think I'll print this and take it in.

Thanks, Steph.
