For those on the East Coast

Beth Isreal Hospital New York City
has this new BSGI available.


I have made an appointment for myself in Nov. instead of MRI
By the way the MRI is $1975 dollars the BSGI cost $500
Major difference in price.

The imaging is not done at the main hospital but at their Breast Imagining
building which is located at:

10 Union Square East
New York, NY - 3rd floor/room P
212 844-8880

They want you to bring your prior mamo's film the week before
your appointment.

I am most eager as the MRI is uncomfortable for the back and arms
plus the noise from the MRI machine is loud.
