Diagnostic Digital Breast Tomosynthesis is an advanced type of breast imaging that takes multiple X-ray images from different angles to create a 3D picture of breast tissue. Your doctor may recommend this test if you have breast symptoms, a family history of breast cancer, or if results from a regular mammogram need further evaluation. During the procedure, you'll stand in front of the machine while your breast is gently compressed, and the imaging arm will move around to capture images from different positions, similar to a standard mammogram but typically taking a bit longer.
