Yes. In fact, our technologists are experienced in performing 3D mammography on patients with implants.
Breast implants can impact the accuracy of a mammogram because both silicone and saline implants are not transparent to X-rays and can obscure tissues behind them. If you have had implants, please let us know—our technologists and radiologists can use special techniques to improve image quality without rupturing the implant during breast compression.
You may also be advised to have a supplemental screening test (such as breast MRI) if you have implants.
