HIGHLY
EXPERIENCED
TEAM
We are devoted to high-quality
imaging services for our patients as
well as our referring providers. We
strive to create the best experience for
our patients.
Our doctors have been a part of
cutting-edge cancer research. They are
passionate about their commitment to
providing women with state-of-the-art
imaging services in a comfortable and
care-oriented environment. As our
patient, your exam will be read by a
breast specialist who reads
mammograms every day, not just
some of the time. We feel this is an
important distinction that separates us
from other imaging centers in the
area.
IMAGING FOR WOMEN
mammography
All screening mammography exams are done
in 3D at no additional cost to the patient.
This is our standard of care and it is a
superior exam compared to a 2D
mammogram. We are the only center in
Kansas City that offers patient-assisted
compression (meaning you control the
amount of pressure placed on your breast).
Your exam will be read by a breast specialist
immediately after being performed and you
will be given results in easy-to-understand
language before you leave. Any additional
work-up needed will be offered the same
day.
bone density
Osteoporosis is a common disease in which
you lose bone mass or bone density. Patients
with osteoporosis are at an increased risk for
fractures. The DEXA scan is a safe, painless
test that takes less than 30 minutes to
perform. Unlike traditional DEXA scans that
only assess bone quantity, our scan will also
assess bone quality. This is important
because you can have normal bone quantity
but poor quality and therefore be at a higher
risk for fractures.
breast biopsy
If you wish to have the biopsy performed
here, we offer both Ultrasound and
Stereotactic biopsies. Both types of biopsies
use imaging to guide the radiologist to the
correct area for sampling.
We Are In The
Business Of Helping
Others.
We offer high-quality imaging services
with state-of-the-art technology. Most
importantly, your results will be given
to you before you leave our office.
ultrasound
Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound
waves to create images. Ultrasound is a non-
invasive procedure and does not use
radiation.
We offer high-quality imaging services
with state-of-the-art technology. Most
importantly, your results will be given to
you before you leave our office. We strive
to make you comfortable while waiting
for your exam in each of our cozy and
unique dressing rooms.
Your exam will be performed by one of
our highly trained technologists (many of
our staff members are breast cancer
survivors). Experience the difference that
our caring team will provide for you.
Raising the
standard of care.

Imaging for Women is a proud member of
KCMPA (Kansas City Metropolitan Physician
Association). KCMPA is one of the largest
independent physician organizations in the
Midwest. Since we are an independent
facility, you will not receive the additional
charges (facility fees, professional fees, etc.)
that hospitals add to your bill. These
additional charges can be thousands of
dollars for the exact same exam.
CONTRAST-ENHANCED MAMMOGRAPHY (CEM)
Contrast-Enhanced Mammography (CEM)
provides exceptional clarity to find breast
cancers that may not be visible in traditional
mammography. CEM may be recommended by
our breast radiologists as a supplemental cancer
screening for elevated or high-risk patients
(lifetime risk of breast malignancy greater than
15%) or to better assess the extent of
malignancy prior to treatment. It can also be
utilized as an alternative to breast MRI that
delivers a fast, more cost-effective diagnosis.
Imaging for Women now offers
Contrast-Enhanced Mammography (CEM).
We are the only center in Kansas City to offer this
type of exam. Learn more about the procedure
