3D Mammography Now Offered at Central Maine Medical Center Central Maine Medical Center’s Sam & Jennie Bennett Breast Care Center is proud to be the only facility in the Lewiston/Auburn area to offer 3D breast imaging to every woman having a screening mammogram. Also known as tomosynthesis, 3D mammography is a safe and proven technology that has a number of benefits over traditional 2D methods, including: • More accurate findings • Earlier diagnosis • Better detection in dense breast tissue • Fewer callbacks for “false alarms” The Bennett Center offers comprehensive breast care from prevention to diagnosis to treatment and ongoing support. Care is provided by a multidisciplinary team of clinicians who specialize in breast health, including a nurse navigator who helps guide patients through the process from diagnosis to recovery.
