3D mammography services are now available in Reedley! With pain being the number one complaint during mammograms, the new and advanced 3D technology at Adventist Health Reedley is designed to lessen discomfort by providing uniform compression. Proven to detect 20%-65% more breast cancers compared to 2D mammography, 3D mammograms allow for faster and more efficient exams. Features of 3D mammograms include:
• 3.7 second scan time for reduced patient motion and fewer retakes.
• Improved visibility of fine details for greater diagnostic confidence.
• SmartCurve Breast Stabilization to apply uniform compression for improved patient comfort.
• The only mammogram FDA approved as superior for women with dense breasts compared to 2D mammograms alone.

PACS - Picture Archiving System (General Electric)

Adventist Health Reedley utilizes sophisticated, electronic technology to capture, store and process medical images. Instantaneous access for viewing images is available to imaging professionals and or care providers on campus or from remote locations. Final imaging reports are available to referring care providers within 24 hours for routine examinations and within minutes for urgent situations.

Digital X-ray (General Electric)

Digitally captured and processed examinations that result in high quality images. The patient's exam is performed and processed within a relatively short time frame.

Digital Mammography (General Electric)

Digitally captured and processed mammograms that result in high quality images. The patient's exam is performed and processed within a relatively short time frame. Mammography imaging includes (CAD), a computer-aided detection software system that analyzes the image and highlights areas on the mammogram image that are suspicious for pathology. The technology works like a "second set of eyes" for the radiologist reading the mammogram.
