Geisinger Expands 3D Mammography

Systemwide deployment enhances diagnostic capabilities and access

Geisinger now offers 3D mammography systemwide, providing patients across its service area with access to the latest, best technology for detecting breast cancer early.

“Having 3D mammography across the system allows us to increase patient access and improve patient outcomes,” said Timothy Murphy, M.D., director of women’s imaging, Geisinger. “Our patients will no longer need to travel outside of the Geisinger service area to receive state-of-the-art breast imaging.”

This advanced technology offers greater accuracy in detecting breast abnormalities, including small tumors that may be undetectable on 2D mammograms. By providing a more detailed and comprehensive view, 3D mammography reduces the need for additional imaging and minimizes false-positive results.
