GENERAL REQUESTS & QUESTIONS For more information please visit the CDC, Click Here SBI Screening Mammography Recommendations for Women Receiving the COVID-19 Vaccine, Click Here NYMI Associates is pleased to offer 3-D TOMOSYNTHESIS MAMMOGRAPHY. Low dose GeniusTM 3D MAMMOGRAPHY exams are clinically proven to be superior to conventional 2D exams 3-D Tomosynthesis Mammography is a new FDA-approved mammography technology that produces a series of 1mm thick, 3-dimensional digital images of the breast. Breast abnormalities such as masses, distortions, and asymmetric densities are better visualized with 3-D mammography. As reported in JAMA (6/25/2014), the addition of tomosynthesis to digital mammography is associated with a statistically significant increase in cancer detection rate and a decrease in recall rate. 3-D tomosynthesis is different from a standard mammogram in the same way a CT scan of the chest is different from a standard chest X-ray. Standard mammography includes two X-rays of each breast from different angles, typically top to bottom and side to side. Standard mammograms are very effective, but are limited by dense breasts and overlapping tissue. Digital tomosynthesis overcomes these issues by taking multiple images of each breast allowing visualization of the breast tissue through multiple layers and angles. The benefits of 3-D tomo include: Statistically significant increase in detection of invasive cancers compared to 2D alone. Statistically significant decrease in recall rate from screening mammography. Statistically significant relative increase in PPV for biopsy. Statistically significant relative increase in PPV for recall. Medicare and multiple private insurers cover 3-D Tomosynthesis. For patients who do not have coverage for this procedure, there is a charge of $100. As an American College of Radiology designated Breast Center of Excellence, we thank you for trusting us with the care of your patients and look forward to offering them this significant advance in breast cancer screening.

Preparation Instructions & Forms Earns ACR Lung Cancer Screening Center Designation New York, NY (July 11, 2014) — [New York Medical Imaging Associates] has been designated a Lung Cancer Screening Center by the American College of Radiology (ACR). The ACR Lung Cancer Screening Center designation is a voluntary program that recognizes facilities that have committed to practice safe, effective diagnostic care for individuals at the highest risk for lung cancer. In order to receive this elite distinction, facilities must be accredited by the ACR in computed tomography in the chest module, as well as undergo a rigorous assessment of its lung cancer screening protocol and infrastructure. Also required are procedures in place for follow-up patient care, such as counseling and smoking cessation programs. Lung cancer screening with low-dose computed tomography scans, and appropriate follow-up care, significantly reduces lung cancer deaths . In December 2013, the United States Preventive Services Task Force recommended  screening of adults aged 55 to 80 years who have a 30 pack-year smoking history and currently smoke or have quit within the past 15 years. Lung cancer is the nation’s leading cancer killer – taking the lives of more people each year than breast, colon and prostate cancers combined. The ACR, founded in 1924, is one of the largest and most influential medical associations in the United States. The ACR devotes its resources to making imaging and radiation therapy safe, effective and accessible to those who need it. Its 36,000 members include radiologists, radiation oncologists, medical physicists, interventional radiologists and nuclear medicine physicians.
