McLaren Macomb first in Southeast Michigan to offer Tomosynthesis 3D Breast Screening Technology

MOUNT CLEMENS, MI – McLaren Macomb is the first and only hospital in Southeast Michigan to offer women who undergo routine mammograms the latest screening and diagnostic technology available to them.

The McLaren Macomb Breast Center now offers 3D digital tomosynthesis for breast cancer screening. This three dimensional imaging technology produces a revolutionary type of mammogram by reconstructing a series of one-millimeter thick breast image slices into a 3D view of the breast.

This helps radiologists identify and characterize individual breast structures without the confusion of overlapping tissue.
