The place you have trusted for quality mammograms for over 18 years is proud to announce...

...first in DIGITAL !  

Our new Hologic Selenia™ mammographic units offer the highest quality digital imaging along with on-board, automated computer aided detection (CAD) software.  Digital mammography is proven to be more effective for dense breasts as well as women under the age of fifty.  Imaging services also include a dedicated breast sonography unit and a state-of-the-art PACS (picture, archiving, capture system).  It is here where a certified radiological technologist using the most sophisticated computerized dose-regulating machine takes your mammogram. Films are read by a certified radiologist with results reported directly back to your physician. Our staff, in a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere gives education and counseling on breast self-examination.  A premium is placed on early detection and early treatment of breast cancer.

TIPS FROM THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY

1. Ask to see the FDA certificate that is issued to all facilities that meet high professional standards of safety and quality.
2. Use a facility that either specializes in mammography of performs many mammograms a day.
3. If you are satisfied that the facility is of high quality, continue to go there on a regular basis so that your mammograms can be compared from year to year.
4. If you change facilities, ask for your old mammograms to bring with you to the new facility so that they can be compared to the new ones.
5. If you have sensitive breasts, try having your mammogram at a time of the month when your breasts will be least tender. Try to avoid the week right before your period. This will help to lessen discomfort.
6. Don't wear deodorant powder or cream under your arms - it may interfere with the quality of the mammogram.
7. Bring a list of the places, dates of mammograms, biopsies, or other breast treatments you have had before.
8. If you do not hear from your physician within 10 days, do not assume that your mammogram was normal - confirm this by calling your physician or the facility.
