Imaging

Imaging services play an important part in your healthcare—from reproductive health to bone strength to breast cancer prevention. Lifeline Medical Associates providers use high-resolution imaging technology to see what’s happening inside your body, helping you make informed decisions about your care at every stage of life.

What Does Imaging Screen For?

Depending on the type of imaging ordered, your provider may be screening for:

  • Breast abnormalities, such as lumps, cysts, or early signs of breast cancer
  • Pregnancy-related concerns, including fetal growth, heartbeat, and anatomy
  • Pelvic conditions, like ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids, or endometriosis
  • Bone loss or osteoporosis, especially in women over 65

These screenings give your provider the information they need to offer timely, targeted care.

Imaging Services

Many conditions don’t show symptoms in their early stages. Imaging can help your provider detect issues early, making it a critical tool for preventive care. Here are a few of the most common imaging services we perform for our patients:

Mammograms

A mammogram is a low-dose X-ray of the breast that plays a key role in early detection of breast cancer. It can identify tumors and changes in breast tissue before they can be felt.

We offer routine screening mammograms as well as diagnostic mammograms if your provider detects a lump or abnormality. Our team will walk you through what to expect and answer any questions about your results.

Mammograms

Ultrasound

Ultrasound imaging uses sound waves to create detailed pictures of your organs and soft tissues. It’s commonly used in pregnancy to monitor fetal development, but it’s also an essential tool for diagnosing gynecologic concerns such as ovarian cysts, fibroids, and abnormal bleeding. Because it’s radiation-free and usually painless, ultrasound is often a first-line diagnostic tool.

Breast MRI

If your provider needs more detailed images after a mammogram or ultrasound, they may recommend a breast MRI. This non-invasive test captures multiple angles and layers of breast tissue and is especially helpful for high-risk patients or those with dense breast tissue.

Bone Density Screening

Women are more likely than men to develop osteoporosis, especially after menopause. A bone density test (also called DEXA or bone densitometry) measures the strength and mineral content of your bones.

Early detection of bone loss allows your provider to intervene with lifestyle changes, supplements, or medications that can prevent fractures and protect your long-term health. Most women should begin bone density testing around age 65, or earlier if you have risk factors.
