Hi @arpie.
Investigate, but I think you may find that after 5 years, you can indeex return to Breastscreen if you so desire. From my understanding, this is the case for NSW, VIC and QLD .
No van or normal centre has 3D Tomo. Only assessment centres for recalled individuals.  3D Tomo is indeed better. It is fairly new and $$$$. Not only the hardware, but the reading of the images. Each slice of the image has to be read, rather than a single image.
