Safe Screening for Women with Implants

Many women with breast or other types of implants often face uncertainty when it comes to medical imaging. If you’ve wondered about the safest way to undergo health screenings without compromising the integrity of your implants, we’re here to shed light on why ultrasound is your best choice.

Why Ultrasound is Ideal for Women with Implants

Ultrasound technology offers several unique advantages for women with implants, making it an essential tool in your health monitoring toolkit:

  • Gentle and Non-Invasive: Ultrasounds require no compression or invasive procedures, making them perfect for imaging areas near sensitive implants.

  • Radiation-Free: Unlike X-rays or CT scans, ultrasound uses sound waves, ensuring there's no radiation exposure that could potentially affect implant materials.

  • Detailed Visuals: Ultrasound provides clear, detailed views of the soft tissues surrounding implants, helping detect any abnormalities or changes without interference.

Your Ultrasound Screening Experience

At Atlanta Ultrasound, we ensure your screening experience is tailored for comfort and clarity:

  • Preparation and Procedure: You'll be comfortably positioned, and a water-based gel will be applied to improve contact between the ultrasound probe and your skin. The probe will then be gently glided over the area, capturing images that are immediately visible on a monitor.

  • Duration and Comfort: The entire session is quick, typically under 30 minutes, and you’ll experience no discomfort as our skilled technicians carefully handle the ultrasound equipment.

  • Results and Follow-Up: Our experts will analyze the images on the spot, discuss findings with you, and recommend any follow-up actions if necessary.
