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.
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.
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.
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 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.
