Molecular Breast Imaging

When it comes to screening for breast cancer, mammography is the best available tool for mass screening. But for women with dense breast tissue, mammography may not be enough to spot breast cancer early, when it’s most curable. Doctors at Mayo Clinic have developed technology to help.  It’s called molecular breast imaging.

    Does this detect cancer in women that have dense breast along with Atypical Ductal Hyperplasia? Is there a location in the Las Vegas area that offers this screening?

    Hi:
    What is the “radiotracer” injection used in molecular breast imaging?
    Thank You
