  • What is a mammogram?

    It is an X-ray picture of the breast and a way to detect breast cancer.

    At GRACE, we include tomosynthesis (3D) imaging in our mammography exams to maximize cancer detection an decrease the need for additional evaluations.

    There are different types of mammography including:

    • Screening mammography

    • Diagnostic mammography

    • Contrast-enhanced mammography

    • Ductogram

    Your healthcare team can help determine the best imaging exam to meet your needs.

  • What is an ultrasound?

    An imaging technique that uses sound waves to create real-time pictures and video of soft tissue.

    Types of ultrasounds:

    • Targeted ultrasound of breast and axilla

    • Whole breast screening ultrasound

    • Ultrasound-guided biopsy and fine needle aspiration

  • What is a biopsy?

    A small sample of cells removed to obtain a definitive answer when imaging is not conclusive.

    The type of biopsy recommended depends on many factors and will be recommended by the radiologist

    Types of biopsy:

    • Ultrasound-guided biopsy

    • Mammogram (Stereotactic) guided biopsy

    • Tomosynthesis guided biopsy

    • MRI guided biopsy

  • What is an MRI?

    MRI stands for magnetic resonance imaging. It is a method of imaging that uses strong magnetic fields to capture images of the body.

    No radiation is used for this exam, but an IV and liquid contrast is needed to look for cancerous changes with this exam.

    Not everyone can have an MRI. For example, implantable devices such as pacemakers should not be placed next to strong magnets. A technologist will ask perform a safety assessment prior to your exam.

    Types of Breast MRI

    • Breast MRI, abbreviated screening

    • Breast MRI, high-risk screening

    • Breast MRI, diagnostic

    • MRI guided biopsy
