A Softer Digital Mammogram
Finally, a more comfortable mammogram
On your next mammogram, you’ll get the best of high tech with a soft touch.
Western Imaging is certified as a Softer Mammogram Provider®, a distinction awarded only to an elite group of healthcare facilities. That means we provide a soft foam cushion, called MammoPad®, for each woman's personal use during every screening mammogram on our advanced digital mammography equipment.
As a Softer Mammogram Provider, we make it a top priority to ensure your
mammogram is warm and comfortable. It's one way we provide the tender
loving care you deserve.
The MammoPad breast cushion was designed for women by a female breast surgeon. It is FDA-cleared, does not impair image quality, and makes it easier for you to be relaxed, warm and comfortable during your exam. That helps our highly skilled mammography technologists achieve the best possible mammogram.

A recent study sponsored by the National Cancer Institute concluded that for certain groups, digital mammography provided more accurate diagnostic information. This study confirms the importance of continuing to provide patients with access to advanced innovations in women’s health.
MammoPad® has already helped millions of women ease the discomfort of getting a mammogram. MammoPad was designed by a female breast surgeon to provide a Softer Mammogram and make mammography more comfortable. The cushion brings warmth, comfort, and cleanliness to the experience.
Clinical studies prove the breast cushion significantly reduces the discomfort and cold that many women feel during mammography. About 70% of women reported it reduced their discomfort by half. MammoPad is an adhesive-backed, single-use cushion is FDA-cleared and has no effect on image quality.
