Breat Tomosynthesis is 1 of 11 Remarkable Health Advances From 2014 – TIME -22 Dec 2014

There comes a time in the evolution of a new medical technology when everything comes together to show the compelling evidence of its worth. For breast tomosynthesis and, in particular, Hologic’s breast tomosynthesis system, that time is now…3D Mammography is proven to be effective.

This study is just the latest in a series of recent findings that support 3D mammography as a more accurate screening method for breast cancer. Prior research published this year has shown that 3D mammograms can save more lives, reduce medical costs and cut down on anxiety-inducing false positive results.
Multiple studies in 2014 showed 3-D mammography to be a highly accurate screening tool for detecting breast cancer with fewer false positive results.
