Fort Mill Breast Center

Charlotte Radiology performs all screening mammograms using 3D technology as the standard of care. Also referred to as digital breast tomosynthesis or “tomo,” 3D mammography offers better image quality and greater accuracy in detecting breast concerns at an early stage – and at a lower radiation dose. This advanced technology is available to patients at all Charlotte Radiology breast center locations (including the mobile breast center). Most insurance plans cover annual 3D screening mammograms at 100%.

DEXA, or Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry, is an imaging technology used to evaluate bone density to determine risk for osteoporosis. Osteoporosis, or low bone density, increases the chance of fractures from even the most minor falls and stresses. DEXA scans are safe, painless and take about 15 minutes. For your convenience, DEXA screenings can be scheduled during your mammogram appointment at select Charlotte Radiology breast center locations.

Abbreviated Breast MRI – also known as FAST MRI – is a shorter version of a standard breast MRI that focuses on the most important images for detecting breast cancer. This technology is another option for women who have an average or intermediate lifetime risk of breast cancer AND dense breast tissue or for women who qualify for, but are not able to proceed with, a standard breast MRI.
