DBT captures images using traditional X-ray technology moving along a small arc around the breast and recording images at different depths and angles. The images produced have an unprecedented amount of clarity and detail, reducing the false-positives and false-negatives often associated with traditional 2D mammography. That means less unnecessary imaging, stress and fear for patients. Penn Medicine offers DBT combined with personalized, multidisciplinary care at the Perelman Center for Advanced Medicine for breast cancer screening.
