catch. >> it' s very similar to a catscan in the sense that multiple slices or images of the breast are taken and individually can be looked at versus just one flat image. j.c.: newton-wellesley hospital provides both screenings to all patients. the result? identifying tumors earlier, and more accurately. >> the 3-d mammography is, has been shown to be superior to conventional 2-d mammography. and even here locally at the hospital, we' ve seen about double the number of diagnoses of small early cancers because of 3-d mammography. j.c.: the statistics, impressive, but not enough to persuade insurance company cigna to pay for the 3-d screenings after february 15. in a letter to policyholders, cigna wrote there' s not enough evidence to support using 3-d mammograms as a screen for breast cancer, and the new technology uses twice the radiation of traditional

>> it just goes to show that they don' t know the data. j.c.: dr. daniel kopans is a senior radiologist at mass general hospital, and developed the 3-d mammogram, also known as tomosynthesis. >> all of the information now on digital breast tomosynthesis proves that it find more small cancers, which are the ones that are curable. and it reduces the recall rate, which some people call a false positive rate. j.c.: in a statement today, cigna said it will continue to review the research on this technology, and will help any customer find a provider willing to offer only 2-d screenings. dr. kopans says that decision could risk lives. >> we find 40-50% more small cancers with tomosynthesis, and insurance companies should cover it. so the folks at cigna really need to go back and do their homework and realize that women are going to die if uh, if they don' t support this technology. jc: so far the state division of insurance tells newscenter five it has not heard about any other company denying coverage for 3-d
