In this hospital, we think your mammogram deserves a Second Look. With computer-aided technology, the Second Look system helps the radiologist provide better screening for breast cancer.
A new tool in the fight against Breast Cancer
Computer aided detection, as the name implies, uses a computer to analyze mammograms. The computer does not replace the radiologist who would normally read the mammograms, it merely acts as a "second opinion' for the physician. It can alert the physician to take a closer look at subtle warning signs that might easily be missed. In fact, the use of computer-aided detection is expected to reduce the number of breast cancers missed.
Your mammogram is scanned into the Second Look System and is analyzed using sophisticated software, which helps to identify potentially cancerous lesions.
Second Look gives you the benefits of a second opinion without any additional procedures or doctor's appointments. It is simply part of the mammography reading process of your radiologist's office. Call us at 270-756-6546 for more information
