Mammography in Zafir Medical Center
About the clinic
Mammography at Zafir Medical Center in Huixquilucan, Mexico, provides detailed breast cancer screening and mammarian evaluation. The center utilizes 3D mammography with tomosynthesis to capture clearer images of breast tissue. This diagnostic service typically requires a scheduled appointment and follows a structured protocol within a licensed medical facility.
Examination Details
The diagnostic process involves imaging the internal structure of the breast to detect abnormalities. Zafir Medical Center uses tomosynthesis, which creates a three-dimensional view of the tissue. This method helps identify small lesions that might be hidden in traditional two-dimensional scans.
- 3D tomosynthesis. Provides multiple images of the breast at different angles.
- Specialized ultrasound. A physician may add this study based on the patient's age and breast density.
- Clinical evaluation. The assessment considers prior studies and individual medical history.
- Diagnostic setting. The examination takes place in a dedicated diagnostic unit.
Diagnostic Methods and Accreditation
The facility holds a COFEPRIS license, which confirms that the medical center meets national regulatory standards in Mexico. Patients receive specific preparation guidance before the scan to ensure the clearest possible images. Depending on the patient's breast density, the medical team may combine the mammogram with a breast ultrasound for a more complete evaluation. This approach helps in detecting early signs of cancer or other breast health concerns.
The diagnostic unit is equipped to handle both routine screenings and more focused evaluations of breast symptoms. Each examination is tailored to the physical characteristics of the breast tissue.
