Making appointments: Clients are offered a choice of appointment times. Appointments will typically last thirty minutes although the scan itself only takes a few seconds. The staff conduct the appointment in a sensitive manner and treat each subject with courtesy and respect.
After the scan: The 3D data is processed and analysed using Body Aspect's proprietary software. For NHS breast assessment scans an assessment report is normally delivered to the CCG within a few days of the scan.
The scanning experience: The scan uses harmless infrared light to capture three-dimensional body data. The actual scan itself is taken by a qualified operator and only takes a few seconds. To get the best results each subject is scanned in well-fitting underwear.
