Our local, small-town hospital has begun advertising this new imaging technology that reportedly in some cases can eliminate wait times for other types of follow up and even reduce the number of biopsies performed. Here is some info on this specific system:

"BSGI is made possible by a unique camera ... This high-resolution camera creates clear pictures so your doctor can see lesions as small as 3 millimeters. It can detect early stage cancers, see lesions even in dense tissue, and provide multiple angle views to ensure the whole breast is examined from different directions. The result is quicker and more accurate detection of breast cancer than with mammography alone."
This sounds like a very promising technology breakthrough -- not a replacement for mammography but a additional diagnostic tool. Do you have any feedback (positive or negative) regarding this? Is the Cleveland Clinic using this technology or have you considered it?
If the promises are true, this could be a big step in easing a lot of the worry and stress women face when "something" is found on their mammogram. Gals, you might want to check into this.
