At Dr. Kamakshi Memorial Hospitals, we are proud to offer state-of-the-art 3D Digital Mammography using the Selenia Dimensions System by Hologic, Inc., the global leader in women's imaging technology. Designed to detect breast abnormalities at the earliest stages, this advanced diagnostic tool significantly enhances breast cancer screening, ensuring higher accuracy, fewer false positives, and improved patient outcomes.

Whether you are coming in for a routine breast screening or a diagnostic mammogram, our facility offers access to one of the most advanced mammography technologies available in Chennai today.

3D Digital Mammography is also known as breast tomosynthesis, 3D Digital Mammography is a revolutionary imaging technique that creates detailed, high-resolution, layered images of the breast. Unlike traditional 2D mammograms that capture a single image, the Selenia Dimensions System captures multiple angles to construct a three-dimensional view of the breast tissue. This allows our radiologists to examine breast tissue layer by layer, making it easier to detect small cancers hidden by overlapping tissue � especially in women with dense breast tissue.
