Introducing the Smart Breast MRI scan at CMC’s Breast Care Center
Smart Breast MRI scan is the smart choice for women at high risk for breast cancer. Dense breast tissue may limit the ability for a regular mammogram to detect cancer. The Smart Breast MRI scan, however, uses contrast to enhance cancerous lesions, even in dense breast tissue. This allows for better visualization of the breast, leading to earlier detection, more effective treatment options and optimal treatment outcomes.
The technology behind Smart Breast MRI scan is based on the latest research in diagnostic imaging and provides the highest quality images in the shortest amount of time. CMC’s Breast Care Center offers a Smart Breast MRI scan that is performed in just 12 to 15 minutes. During the Smart Breast MRI scan, contrast dye is injected into your vein (through an IV line), allowing our breast imaging specialist to detect abnormalities clearly and accurately even in dense breast tissue. There is no radiation exposure or breast compression, making this a comfortable choice for patients at high risk or with dense breast tissue.
The new Smart Breast MRI scan allows our patient to get back to doing the things she loves the most! After a Smart Breast MRI scan, our patient can feel more confident she is cancer-free and has greater peace of mind to enjoy life more fully. This is just one of the many ways we are able to fulfill our “pinky promise” in delivering the highest quality imaging with the latest innovation!
