We understand that pain and discomfort are the top reasons why women skip their mammogram. That is why we partnered with Siemens Healthineers to offer the first mammogram system with 3D breast tomosynthesis in the DFW area.

Breast ultrasound uses sound waves and their echoes to make computer pictures of the inside of the breast. A breast ultrasound should not replace a mammogram, but it can be helpful in determining certain breast changes, like fluid-filled cysts, that can be harder to see on mammograms.

A breast biopsy is a quick, accurate, and minimally invasive procedure that evaluates a suspicious area in the breast to determine if it is cancer. A small sample of breast tissue is removed for laboratory testing to identify and diagnose abnormalities in the cells. Results will show whether additional surgery or treatment is needed.

A breast MRI is an imaging test that helps determine if a lump in the breast is malignant or benign. It uses radio waves and strong magnets to make detailed pictures of the inside of the breast.

A bone density scan is a safe and non-invasive screening that is commonly used to diagnose osteoporosis and bone loss. The test uses x-rays to measure how many grams of calcium and other bone minerals are packed into a segment of bone.

At CCI Diagnostic Center for Women, you and your baby’s health comes first. We offer obstetric ultrasounds for routine, as well as high-risk pregnancies.

Both men and women benefit from learning if they have breast cancer risk. Results of genetic testing can help determine if someone has a higher risk of developing different types of cancer.
