Mammogram Screening

At Emirates Hospitals, we are committed to providing comprehensive and state-of-the-art healthcare services to ensure the well-being of our patients. One of our key services is Mammogram Screening, a vital procedure for early detection of breast cancer. Regular mammograms are essential for women, as they can detect tumors that are too small to be felt, thereby allowing for early intervention and treatment.

A mammogram is a specialized X-ray of the breast used to detect and evaluate changes in breast tissue. It is a crucial tool in the early detection of breast cancer, often identifying abnormalities before they become palpable lumps. This early detection is key in providing the best chance for successful treatment and recovery.

Why Choose Mammogram Screening?

• Early Detection: Mammograms can detect breast cancer early, often before symptoms appear. Early detection significantly increases the chances of successful treatment.
• Accurate Diagnosis: High-quality mammograms, interpreted by experienced radiologists, can distinguish between benign and malignant lesions, reducing the need for unnecessary biopsies.
• Peace of Mind: Regular screenings can provide reassurance and help women stay proactive about their breast health.

Our Mammography Services

1. Digital Mammography

Emirates Hospitals offers digital mammography, which provides clearer and more detailed images compared to traditional film mammography. This advanced technology improves the accuracy of breast cancer detection and reduces the need for repeat examinations.

2. 3D Mammography (Tomosynthesis)

For an even more detailed examination, we provide 3D mammography, also known as tomosynthesis. This technique captures multiple images of the breast from different angles, allowing for a more comprehensive evaluation and better detection of small tumors.

3. Diagnostic Mammograms

In addition to screening mammograms, we offer diagnostic mammograms for women who have symptoms such as a lump, pain, or nipple discharge, or who have had an abnormal screening mammogram. These more detailed X-rays help in further evaluating and diagnosing breast issues.

4. Breast Ultrasound

To complement mammography, we provide breast ultrasound services, especially useful for evaluating breast changes that are difficult to see on a mammogram, such as those in dense breast tissue.

What to Expect During Your Mammogram

Your mammogram appointment at Emirates Hospitals will be conducted in a comfortable and private setting by our skilled technologists. The procedure typically takes about 20 minutes. During the mammogram, your breast will be positioned and compressed between two plates to obtain clear images. While some discomfort may be experienced, it is usually brief and minimal.

Aftercare and Follow-Up

After your mammogram, our radiologists will carefully review the images. You will receive your results promptly, along with any recommended follow-up steps if necessary. If further evaluation is needed, our team will guide you through the next steps with care and support.
