Solis Mammography: specialized mammography with 3D technology and insurance coverage

Solis Mammography is a mammography and medical imaging services organization that presents itself as a leader in its field. Its work focuses on early detection of breast cancer through 3D mammography, with an emphasis on patient comfort and accurate results. The company operates a network of centers in the United States and offers services for both patients and referring physicians.

Diagnostic imaging services

The service catalog includes screening mammography, diagnostic mammography, breast ultrasound, breast biopsy, and bone density testing (DEXA). It also offers Mammo+Heart, an innovation that uses artificial intelligence to analyze the same mammogram for early signs of cardiovascular risk, providing insight into heart health from a single scan.

Technology and focus on comfort

The company has invested in the development of SmartCurve, a curved compression system designed to adapt to the shape of the breast and reduce the discomfort typical of traditional mammography. According to its data, 93% of patients who experienced pain with the traditional system found greater comfort with SmartCurve. This technology is combined with 3D mammography, which gives radiologists more than 60 images to evaluate and has been shown to increase early detection of invasive breast cancer by 54%, while also reducing callbacks by 37%. The company states that all of its radiologists are breast-specialized and that it uses artificial intelligence at most of its locations.

Patient care and coordination

Solis Mammography emphasizes the patient experience: it offers online appointment scheduling in 60 seconds, visit times of under 30 minutes, and results in less than 48 hours. It has technologists specialized in breast care and a Breast Care Coordination program to support patients. The company also has a patient portal and resources such as FAQs, pre-registration forms, and records requests.

Insurance coverage and access

The organization is in-network with most major insurance plans and, according to its information, 3D mammography is covered with $0 out-of-pocket for most patients. For coverage questions, it has an insurance team that can be contacted by phone or email. It also collaborates with mammography assistance programs such as Careity, Moncrief, and MDsave (in Granbury and Navarro).

Physician resources and training

For healthcare professionals, Solis Mammography offers a physician portal, digital toolkits, referral pads, and partnership programs. It also has Solis University, a training initiative, and MammoConnect, a collaboration platform. The company also publishes information on the state of mammography and maintains a news and insights section.

Track record and recognition

With more than 40 years in operation, Solis Mammography states that 94% of its patients recommend it. The company has been the subject of a misleading Facebook advertising campaign by a group called Consumer Protection Law, which suggested privacy violations; Solis Mammography has stated that it has no evidence of such violations and that it is working to remove those ads, considering them a possible scam.
