3D mammograms reduce breast cancer false positives
Since Carol Milgard Breast Centered opened our doors in 2009, we have served tens of thousands of women using the latest advanced technology and were the first to offer 3D screening mammaography in Pierce County. In addition to 3D being more effective than traditional mammography for some patients, it also reduces breast cancer false positives.
A recent article from the Puget Sound Business Journal:

Dr. Christoph Lee, an assistant professor at the University of Washington School of Medicine, was the lead
author of a study showing 3D mammography is more effective than traditional
mammography for some patients.
