No, a DeteQTion scan is not painful. Unlike traditional mammograms, which require compression of the breasts and can be uncomfortable or even painful for some women, this is a non-compressive, pain-free procedure. The technology uses sound waves to create detailed images of the breast tissue without the need for squeezing or flattening, making the experience much more comfortable for patients.

Preparing for a DeteQTion scan is simple and straightforward. Here’s what you need to do:
DeteQTion (or QT Imaging) is a safe, non-invasive procedure that does not use ionizing radiation, making it a safe option for pregnant women. Since the technology relies on sound waves rather than X-rays, there is no risk of radiation exposure to you or your baby. If you have any concerns, it’s always best to consult with your healthcare provider before undergoing any medical procedure during pregnancy.
If you are breastfeeding, you can still undergo a QT Imaging scan without concern. The procedure is safe and non-invasive, using sound waves to create images rather than radiation, so it poses no risk to you or your baby. There is no need to interrupt breastfeeding before or after the scan. However, it’s always a good idea to inform the technician that you are breastfeeding so they can take any additional considerations into account if necessary.
Yes, QT Imaging is both safe and effective for women with breast implants. The technology uses sound waves to create detailed images of breast tissue, which allows it to visualize structures around implants without the risk of radiation. Unlike traditional mammograms, which can sometimes be less effective at imaging breast tissue around implants due to compression and potential distortion, QT Imaging provides clear images without compressing the breast. This makes it a valuable tool for accurate assessment in women with breast implants. If you have implants, it’s a good idea to inform the imaging facility so they can ensure the scan is tailored to your needs.
The Deteqtion scan is $500 per scan and $400 for the follow-up.
