New Bucks County Women’s Wellness Center Provides 3D Mammography in Spa-like Setting
Langhorne, PA (PRWEB) May 13, 2014 -- Ella Health, an innovative women’s wellness center, is bringing a better mammogram to Bucks County. The center provides the most advanced technology, 3D imaging, and is designed to encourage women to get an annual breast cancer screening exam with a beautiful, spa-like setting and friendly, welcoming staff.
The 3D mammography system has been shown to increase the likelihood of detecting cancer while reducing unnecessary call backs. Ella Health is the first center in Bucks County to offer the breakthrough technology.
During a 3D exam, multiple images of the breast are taken at different angles. These images are then used to produce a series of one-millimeter thick slices that can be viewed as a 3D reconstruction of the breast. This enables Ella Health’s board certified radiologists to better detect cancer and determine what is not of concern.
“We are excited to be able to offer this incredible screening exam to women in the Langhorne area,” said Ella Health Chief Executive Melissa Dyrdahl. “It’s important to provide women with the highest level of care and 3D mammograms not only make it more likely that we will find cancer earlier, they also make it less likely that women will be called back for unnecessary testing.”
In addition to offering the latest technology, Ella Health provides a convenient and comfortable experience. Appointments can be made online and with short notice, sometimes on the same day. The center features a relaxing atmosphere with soft music, tea and coffee in the waiting room, soft warm cloth robes and private dressing rooms. Results are delivered quickly, generally within one business day of the exam.
Ella Health is located in the same building as The Center for Women’s Health at 540 North Woodbourne Road, Langhorne.
“We are pleased to welcome Ella Health to the area,” said Robert Berk, M.D. of The Center for Women's Health. “This ensures that patients will be able to get the most advanced mammograms in a setting that is designed around their needs and focused on providing them with great care.”
