Oregon has the second highest
rate of breast cancer in the nation.
Help Tuality establish this advanced technology for breast-cancer diagnosis in western Washington County.
Medical centers of excellence around the country understand the potentially life-saving advantages of digital mammography. Instead of using the traditional method of recording images on large X-ray films, digital mammography uses computer technology to capture and store images. The resulting images are more easily accessed and analyzed on computer screens. Our patients and clinicians will benefit through:
- Higher-quality images
- Ability for physician to digitally enhance pictures of breast images in order to detect breast cancer
- Potential for lower radiation exposure
- Rapid retrieval of prior images
- Ability to transmit images to other areas and locations
