Diagnostic Evaluation

Reasons you may need additional diagnostic procedures

Result of Screening Mammogram

If your Solis Breast Radiologist notices something on your screening mammogram that requires further evaluation, you may be called back for a Diagnostic Mammogram or Breast Ultrasound

Result of Clinical Exam

If your primary care physician or OB/GYN detects a lump in your breast during an in-office breast exam or you have other symptoms such as thickening or unusual discharge, your physician may order one or more diagnostic procedures.
 
Do not be alarmed if this should occur. 
 
A diagnostic appointment DOES NOT mean you have cancer. It is merely the next step to clarify any abnormalities detected during a screening mammogram or doctor's exam.
 
During your diagnostic appointment, your Solis Radiologist will consult with you on his or her findings before you leave the office.
