How does Community Memorial Hospital stand out when it comes to women’s imaging services?
We proudly offer comprehensive, 3D mammography. We’re pleased to provide women with new technology and equipment, via our state-of-the-art ultrasound and mammography machines
Available Medical Imaging Services Includes:
Digital Mammography
Digital mammography is improved technology, providing several advantages to traditional mammography. Digital images are immediately available and their quality can be immediately assessed. This means that our patients spend less time in the exam room and rarely need to repeat the process. Digital images provide more information, increase the accuracy of your diagnosis, and facilitate earlier and better detection of disease.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound (high-frequency sound waves) visualize soft tissue structures in the body in real time and is used on masses or tumors. It is safe for obstetrical imaging and is used for some vascular studies, particularly of the carotid arteries.
