We take pride in being at the forefront for Women’s Imaging in Central Florida. We were the first facility in Central Florida to inform patients of their breast density and first to recommend Breast Ultrasound for women with dense tissue (Breast density is an important predictor of breast cancer risk).
Women’s Center for Radiology is pleased to offer a variety of Ultrasound procedures for our patients. Ultrasound is a medical procedure that uses sound waves to obtain precise images of various organs and tissues. Ultrasound is a safe and painless diagnostic procedure.
Innovative Breast Cancer Screening
2D and 3D mammography may miss cancers in dense breasts, potentially delaying diagnosis in these women. Both dense breast tissue and cancer appear white on a mammogram, creating a dangerous camouflage effect and a dilemma for radiologists whose goal is to find breast cancer as early as possible. This is why we recommend Ultrasound supplemental screening technology for detecting cancer in dense breast tissue.
Diagnostic ultrasound exams are performed using high-frequency sound waves. The sound waves are reflected by water and tissue, and then reconstructed to form an image for the doctors. No radiation is used to perform this exam.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound is a specialty at our facility, and our ultrasound technicians are certified by the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonographers (ARDMS). This registry requires continuing education in the field of women’s imaging. You can be sure you are in competent and caring hands during your ultrasound.
