3D mammogram in Perth

Just wondering if there is now 3D mammogram available in Perth? Also, can we
have mammogram and ultrasound every 6 months instead of yearly? 
Thank you ladies. :smile:

    Thank you @j9k. Im sorry to hear about your recurrence. Big hugs to you.
    I am too very paranoid of recurrence. Do you mind me asking the stage and treatment that you had on your initial diagnosis? Are you on hormone therapy?

    Hi @AA. Im not from Perth so I can't advise re 3D, but my surgeon ordered 6mthly ultrasound and annual mammogram, partly because of my anxiety re recurrence. I had BC in 2005,2009 & again in May this year. My treatment has been at the Wesley in Brisbane.  It should be possible if your surgeon is supportive i would think.  :)
