When you have a mammogram at Elizabeth Wende Breast Care (EWBC) in Rochester, NY, your images are interpreted by fellowship-trained radiologists who specialize exclusively in breast imaging. Unlike many breast imaging centers, our mammograms are interpreted by two of our breast imaging radiologists.
Breast Imaging Specialists — Not General Radiologists
At EWBC, your mammogram is interpreted by two physicians who focus solely on breast imaging. Unlike general radiologists who read many types of imaging exams, EWBC radiologists dedicate their practice exclusively to breast imaging:
- Screening mammograms
- Diagnostic mammograms
- Breast ultrasound
- Breast MRI
For patients in Rochester, NY, this focused expertise means your images are reviewed by physicians dedicated solely to breast health.
Why Specialization Matters
Because breast imaging is their only focus, EWBC radiologists interpret a high volume of exams every day. This experience helps them:
- Detect breast cancer at its earliest stages
- Identify subtle changes in breast tissue
- Accurately compare current and prior imaging
For those searching for a mammogram in Rochester, NY, this specialized expertise supports both accuracy and peace of mind.
A Collaborative Approach to Accuracy
Every mammogram at EWBC is reviewed by two breast imaging radiologists before results are finalized. This collaborative approach supports the high standard of breast imaging care EWBC provides throughout the Rochester region.
Advanced Technology, Expertly Interpreted
EWBC combines expert review with advanced imaging technology:
- 3D Mammography (Tomosynthesis) for more detailed visualization of breast tissue
- Computer-Aided Detection (CAD) to assist radiologists in identifying subtle abnormalities
While technology is an important tool, experienced radiologists remain the most critical part of accurately interpreting your mammogram.
What Happens After Your Mammogram
After your exam:
- A breast imaging radiologist reviews your exam, followed by a second radiologist independently reading the mammogram before results are finalized
- A report is sent to your healthcare provider
- You receive your results the same day
If additional imaging is needed, our Rochester-based team will guide you through the next steps and answer any questions you may have.
Why It Matters
When you have your mammogram, it is important to know who is reading it. At EWBC, every mammogram is interpreted by fellowship-trained radiologists who specialize exclusively in breast imaging and is independently reviewed by a second breast imaging radiologist.
