3D Mammography and Breast Imaging in Turkey
Breast imaging is an important part of breast health assessment and may be used for screening or to investigate symptoms and previous findings. Istanbul Medical Service assists international patients in accessing appropriate breast specialists and diagnostic imaging facilities in Turkey.
Individual Breast Imaging Assessment
The appropriate imaging method depends on factors such as age, symptoms, medical history, previous examinations and specialist evaluation. A healthcare professional may recommend mammography, digital breast tomosynthesis, breast ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) according to the individual case.
What Is Digital Breast Tomosynthesis?
Digital breast tomosynthesis is an imaging technique that produces multiple images of the breast from different angles to support radiological assessment. Whether it is appropriate for a particular patient should be determined by the responsible physician or radiologist.
Further Diagnostic Evaluation
If an imaging study identifies a finding that requires additional investigation, further imaging, specialist consultation or tissue sampling may be recommended. The diagnostic pathway should be determined by qualified healthcare professionals after reviewing the patient’s individual findings.
International Patient Coordination
Istanbul Medical Service can coordinate appointments, diagnostic imaging, specialist consultations and related medical travel logistics for international patients seeking breast assessment in Turkey. Existing reports and images may also be shared with the selected healthcare provider as part of the coordination process.
