Matthews Breast Center

Annual 3D screening mammography is the standard of care at Charlotte Radiology. 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. Annual 3D screening is now integrated with ProFound® AI - an FDA-cleared technology that facilitates early detection of breast cancers including those that are more difficult to find. This advanced technology provides additional information for our breast imaging experts to interpret your mammogram. Our board-certified, subspecialized radiologists read every image – incorporating AI input as well as comparing your current images to those available from your prior mammograms – to deliver precise, personalized results. The radiologist will include their clinical findings, including breast density and any follow-up recommendations, in your report. Charlotte Radiology is the first in the area to offer this advanced AI technology to all annual screening and diagnostic patients at no additional cost; most insurances cover annual screening mammograms 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.
