6. Cyanoacrylate (glue) closure of the long segment truncal veins is an option in the appropriate patient setting. Learn more about how the glue works in this short video.
7. No two venous practitioners use the same strength, duration, or length of compression. However, our closure rate is 99%. We think we’ve got this one knocked. This video explains why we’ve chosen the protocol that we follow.

However, the part that creates some of the most anxiety is not knowing what to expect during a screening examination. This video discusses the typical protocol for screening mammography to help you understand what will occur during your examination.
5. Diagnostic Mammography: When a finding is identified that requires more detailed views of the breast a diagnostic mammogram is in order. This video describes why the extra views are necessary and how we approach the diagnostic mammogram.
6. Breast Biopsy: When a finding warrants a tissue diagnosis, a biopsy is necessary. This video describes a typical biopsy scenario.
