Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a mammogram and a breast ultrasound?

Mammography uses low-dose X-rays and is the gold standard for screening; ultrasound uses sound waves and complements the exam, especially in dense breast tissue.

Do I need prior preparation for an ultrasound?

Breast ultrasounds do not require fasting or special preparation. For abdominal or pelvic studies, specific instructions are given upon scheduling.

How long do results take?

Diagnostic reports and high-resolution images are delivered promptly in digital format so your specialist can review them without delays.

Does an image-guided biopsy hurt?

It is performed under local anesthesia, making it a minimally invasive, fast, and virtually painless outpatient procedure.
