Mammograms

Coming soon!

Open Door Health Services is pleased to announce 3D mammograms coming soon, the most advanced technology in breast cancer screening.

  • Open to the public

  • Insurance welcome, but not required (assistance programs available for uninsured patients)

  • Offered at our downtown Muncie health center (333 S. Madison St.)

Early detection saves lives

  • 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime.

  • The good news is, the survival rate with early detection can be 98%.

  • Women at average risk for breast cancer have the option to start annual mammograms at age 40.

What are 3D mammograms?

3D mammograms take 15 x-ray images of the breast from all angles, to create a 3D view. This allows your radiologist to see detailed images of your breast tissue in a way never before possible with traditional 2D mammograms.

How are 3D mammograms different?

Traditional mammograms create a flat image. In a 3D mammogram, the radiologist looks at the breast tissue in one-millimeter slices, scrolling through the images like pages of a book and providing a more accurate reading. 3D mammograms help show the complexities of breast tissue.

What are the benefits of 3D mammograms?

3D mammograms have been shown to detect 40% more invasive cancers than traditional mammograms. There’s also less chance your doctor will need to call you back for a “second look,” because they can see the breast tissue more clearly.

What should I expect?

3D mammograms are done in conjunction with a standard 2D mammogram, using the same system. It takes just a few seconds longer than a traditional mammogram for each view, and with no additional compression. 3D mammograms use very low x-ray energy--about the same amount of radiation as traditional, and well below regulated limits.
