3D mammography is a technique in which an x-ray arm images the breast from many different angles, layer by layer. This enables a radiologist to view the breast in significantly greater detail than traditional 2D mammography. A recent study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that 3D mammography, when used along with standard digital mammograms, increased breast cancer detection rates by more than 40 percent.
