A
mammogram is an x-ray image of the breast. Mammography is the
procedure used to generate a mammogram.
The equipment used to obtain a mammogram, however, is very different
from that used to perform an x-ray of your chest or bones. The
breast is composed of tissues that are similar to each other in
density. Changes or abnormalities in your breast tissue are often
very subtle. Therefore, the mammogram machines, film, and developing
process are specially designed to take pictures of these subtle
differences.

An
X-ray examination uses electromagnetic radiation to make images
of your bones, teeth and internal organs. Simply put, an X-ray
allows your doctor to take pictures of the inside of your body.
One of the oldest forms of medical imaging, an X-ray is a painless
medical test that can help your doctor in diagnosis and treatment
— even in emergency situations. It's a fast, easy and safe way
for your doctor to view and assess conditions ranging from broken
bones to pneumonia to cancer. Many different types of X-rays,
such as bone or chest X-rays, exist. The type your doctor uses
depends on what part of your body is being examined and for what
purpose.
- User friendly radiographic equipment,
which is beneficial to the patient.
- Both facilities are IDNS certified.
- SPecial angulations and different techniques
