Digital Mammography at the Avera McKennan Breast Care Center
Improved Diagnosis and Treatment - The Region's First provider to offer full-field digital mammography.
Clearer, state-of-the-art images of the breast mean better diagnosis and better treatment. According to the National Cancer Institute, as a screening measure, digital mammography detects 15 - 28% more breast cancer in women with dense breast tissue or who are younger than age 50.
Avera McKennan utilizes Computer-Aided Detection in conjunction with their digital mammography. This technology acts like a second set of eyes, making it easier for physicians to read and detect cancer at its earliest stage.
Best of all, at the Avera McKennan Breast Care Center, all women will receive the highest quality digital mammography at no increase in cost compared to traditional mammography.
