WELCOME TO
CRL WOMEN’S IMAGING
Providing patients with the highest-quality breast imaging and diagnostic services utilizing the most advanced technologies in a caring and compassionate environment.
Tailoring our approach to meet your individual needs, our clinic is committed to providing a comprehensive and patient-centered breast imaging experience. We offer patient navigator services, educational resources, and an expert team of radiologists and technologists specializing in breast imaging. Your well-being is our top priority, and from the moment you step into our clinic, our dedicated staff, technologists, and radiologists are devoted to ensuring you receive exceptional care and support throughout your visit.
Our team is comprised of dedicated, board-certified breast imagers with broad expertise and genuine interest in breast imaging. We are based at the Piper Breast Center and CRL Imaging Southdale, both designated as Breast Centers of Excellence by the American College of Radiology (ACR).
As part of our strong commitment to quality care and adherence to regulatory requirements, CRL initiated a cooperative study with our affiliated institutions to coordinate quality assurance data, which exceeds the minimum Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA) requirements. Our data is compared to national benchmarks set by the ACR. CRL radiologists consistently exceed the recommended standards.
In late 2015, CRL Women’s Imaging opened its doors inside CRL Imaging Southdale. The newly redesigned Women’s Imaging wing offers Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (also known as 3D Mammography), Upright Stereotactic Biopsy, and Tomosynthesis Stereotactic Biopsy. We have found a significant increase in invasive cancers utilizing Digital Breast Tomosynthesis.
Patient Navigator Services
At CRL Women’s Imaging providing comprehensive breast imaging and diagnostic services with compassion is our top priority. Our patient navigator services provide patients with guidance and support during their appointment and beyond.
