Andrea L Lundell, M.D graduated from Yale University School of Medicine, completed a residency in Diagnostic Radiology, and a fellowship in MRI. Dr. Lundell has extensive experience in diagnostic and basic interventional radiology. With nearly 20 years as a radiologist and breast imager, she is proud to have been affiliated with the Elizabeth Jekot MD Breast Imaging Center since 2010. In 2012, she was diagnosed with breast cancer by her friend and colleague, Dr. Elizabeth Jekot. Because she found Andrea’s cancer very early using breast MRI, systemic chemotherapy was not required.

Services
Digital Mammography
We offer digital 2-D and 3-D mammograms for screening and diagnostic evaluation. Check your insurance to see if it covers 3-D.
Breast Ultrasound
We offer ultrasound to assess lumps found on clinical breast exams or mammograms and ultrasound screening for patients with dense breast tissue.
Breast Biopsy
We offer needle biopsy with sonographic or 3-D mammographic guidance to sample suspicious lesions.
Bone Density
We offer bone mineral density exams to screen for osteopenia and osteoporosis, which helps determine a patient’s risk for fracture.
3-D Mammography
The video demonstrates the visualization of a cancer that is not perceptible with 2-D imaging, but is clearly seen with 3-D. While 2-D mammograms are a static image of the breast, a 3-D mammogram, also called a tomosynthesis, captures many images of the breast.
Imagine the breast in mild compression as a book with clear pages and white text. A 2-D mammogram is a picture of a book without its front or back cover, but many of the words may be superimposed, possibly obscuring a significant finding, or creating a false finding. A 3-D mammogram allows the radiologist to flip through the pages of the book. This increases the ability to find early breast cancer while decreasing the number of callbacks from screening for additional imaging.
