Advanced Care Done Your Way
West Valley Medical Center offers digital mammography at its new Women's Imaging Center in Caldwell.
The center, which has a spa-like atmosphere aimed at enhancing the patient experience, is located next to the OB/GYN Associates clinic on the third floor of the Family Medical Center 315 E. Elm St. ― in Caldwell.
The Big Picture
The Women's Imaging Center's new digital mammography machine uses a selenium-based direct-capture technology, which eliminates light diffusion completely, producing perfect clarity and exquisite image quality.
This unit incorporates Hologic's patented HTC grid technology that delivers higher-quality images and significantly reduces excess radiation to the breast. To decrease discomfort caused by compression, the machine's smart paddles conform to the breast.
3-D And 4-D Ultrasound
West Valley Medical Center also has 3-D/4-D ultrasound imaging capabilities, meaning it can produce still images in a 3-D presentation, such as a baby's face, and moving 3-D images.
Bone Density Screening
The hospital's new Lunar Prodigy Bone Densitometry System allows it to scan both hips as well as the spine for most routine patients, providing improved measurement accuracy. This system significantly reduces the testing time for patients.
