Sonocine Automated Breast Ultrasound in Glendale
Whole-breast automated ultrasound designed for dense breast tissue, a supplement to mammography that can reveal what dense tissue hides. No radiation, no compression.
What is Sonocine?
Sonocine automated whole-breast ultrasound uses a motorized transducer that travels across the breast in a systematic, overlapping path. Instead of a handheld sweep over one area, it captures a complete image set of the entire breast, thousands of frames a radiologist reviews like a film.
It is used in addition to, not instead of, a mammogram. Mammography remains the foundation of breast screening; automated ultrasound adds a second look that is not limited by tissue density, with no radiation and no compression.
