Many women find out they have dense breasts after their first mammogram, which means that the makeup of their breast tissue can hide some breast cancers on mammogram.

Morton Hospital now offers Tomosynthesis at our newly renovated Women's Imaging suite at our main hospital campus in Taunton and at Morton Health Services in Middleboro (walk-ins are welcomed at this location). To schedule an appointment, call 508-828-7690.

Dense breast tissue is a common and normal occurrence in many women. However, it can make finding cancer on a mammogram a little more challenging. Learn more.
