The Division of Breast Imaging performs approximately 40,000 breast imaging procedures including mammograms, sonograms, needle-guided biopsies of nonpalpable lesions, stereotactic or ultrasound-guided core biopsies, and breast MRI examinations yearly making it one of the most active services of its kind in the country. All diagnostic breast-imaging studies are performed at the Breast Imaging Center (BIC). Screening mammography is performed at the Mammography Screening Center (MSC).

Both centers are located in the hospital complex. There are four state of the art digital mammographic units at the BIC and one digital unit at the MSC. The BIC also contains a stereotactic core biopsy unit with digital imaging capability, three high-resolution breast ultrasound units.

Ongoing research projects involve breast cancer screening with mammography, ultrasound, and MRI.  Collaborations with the Division of Ultrasound include such projects as elastography, computer aided detection, and use of intravenous ultrasound contrast agents in the breast.
