At Parklane Radiology, we offer a wide array of diagnostic imaging services that are personalized to meet the diverse needs of our patients.

  We utilize Tomosynthesis (3D) mammography to capture high-resolution breast images. This service plays a critical role in the early detection of abnormalities and is essential for successful treatment planning.

• Breast MRI:
  Our advanced MRI technology produces detailed images of breast tissue. This service aids in the accurate diagnosis and staging of breast cancer, which helps guide targeted therapies.

• Breast Ultrasound:
  We perform comprehensive ultrasound examinations to differentiate between cystic and solid masses. Consequently, our precise imaging supports informed clinical decisions.

• Biopsy Procedures:
  Our team performs image-guided biopsies, including stereotactic biopsies, to obtain tissue samples for histopathological analysis. This procedure confirms diagnoses and informs treatment strategies.

• Cryoablation:
  We offer cryoablation, a minimally invasive procedure that uses extreme cold to destroy small breast tumors. This innovative treatment is an effective alternative to traditional surgery.
