Comprehensive breast imaging center in Rowlett

Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Lake Pointe offers a comprehensive breast imaging center in Rowlett to assist with screening and diagnostic services. We are committed to the prevention, early detection and diagnosis of breast conditions, including breast cancer, through compassionate and coordinated care right here in our Rowlett community.

While our main focus is your breast health, we pride ourselves on making your experience as comforting as possible, providing you peace of mind before, during and after your appointment.

We know you are busy, but a mammogram is a picture worth taking. In fact, most breast screenings take 30 minutes or less. Women age 40 and older do not need a physician referral/order to schedule an annual screening mammogram. For those under 40, a referral/order is required. Check with your insurance on coverage/payment that may be required for breast imaging services.

Advanced 3D mammography

Baylor Scott & White Breast Center – Rockwall, located about 15 minutes away from our Lake Pointe hospital in Rowlett, is proud to offer advanced 3D mammography (breast tomosynthesis) designed for more accurate breast cancer screening than traditional 2D mammography. 3D mammography allows the radiologist on the medical staff to examine breast tissue one layer at a time, making fine details more visible because they are no longer hidden by tissue.

3D mammography screening has shown an increase in cancer detection and a decrease in false alarms over 2D mammography, according to a study published in The Journal of the American Medical Association.

Benefits of 3D mammograms may include:

  • Decrease in false alarms due to abnormalities
  • Fine details are more visible and are less likely to be hidden by overlapping tissue
