We were the first hospital in the area to offer 3-D mammograms to detect cancer earlier.
Found a lump?
Call your physician immediately if you detect a lump in your breast, especially if you're post-menopausal.
You should be tested if:
- You are a woman older than 40.
- Your mother, grandmother or aunt has been diagnosed with breast cancer.
- You have noticed a lump or another abnormality in your breast.
- You have had breast cancer in the past.
3-D Mammograms
A 3-D mammogram provides the clearest, most detailed view of breast tissue possible.
