SonoCiné is an automated breast ultrasound system that has been cleared by FDA as an adjunctive examination to mammography. It is a complimentary examination and not a replacement for mammography.

Early studies indicate that, when used as an adjunct to mammography, SonoCiné may find smaller cancers than may be found by mammography alone.

 
 

 

SonoCiné ultrasound, added to an annual mammogram, may find more small cancers than mammography alone

SonoCiné ultrasound, combined with mammography, increases confidence in your diagnosis

If your mammogram shows you have “dense” breasts, you may want to consider a SonoCiné examination in addition to your mammogram. In dense breasts, studies show that ultrasound can find 40% more of the small cancers than can be found by mammography alone.

 

 

 

On ultrasound, cancers appear dark against the white background of dense breast tissue (image is a 6mm cancer discovered by SonoCiné but not on the mammogram)

 

 

 

Requires no breast compression and no injections
Takes about 15 minutes
Is permanently recorded for your physician’s careful review and follow-up

 
         
 

 

Tiny cancers (which are white) are easily visible in fatty replaced breasts which are dark on a mammogram.
In women with dense breast tissue (white on the mammogram) cancers which are also white, can be invisible.
