Digital Mammography

Northern Louisiana Medical Center is proud to announce the arrival of Digital Mammography to our facility. Digital technology greatly enhances our ability to detect abnormal growths even in the early stages of development. Computer-aided detection (CAD) software is also used as an additional support. It automatically detects abnormalities on an image, highlighting them for clinicians. This technology greatly reduces missed breast cancers. Our mammography department is accredited with the American College of Radiology ensuring that we meet the top standards of care.

Further information about Digital Mammography, including ways to prepare for the examination, can be obtained by calling Sheri Burns, NLMC Director of Radiology at 318-254-2461 or by logging on to http://www.radiologyinfo.org.
