Coned-Down Magnification Views on a Mammogram

On occasion, women may be asked to return to Providence Imaging Center for additional views, also called coned-down magnification views. These views are used to examine an area of concern more closely. One or more images may be obtained. 

Preparation is the same as for a screening or diagnostic mammogram.  If you are asked to come in for additional images , please do not wear deodorant, talcum powder or lotion under your arms or on your breasts on exam day. For convenience, wear a two-piece outfit.
