Our breast health treatments and services

We offer a multidisciplinary care team, which may include radiologists, surgeons, oncologists and radiation oncologists. This team provides same-day screening mammograms and a variety of other breast health services.

Types of breast imaging we offer

Imaging options for women coming to the Breast Care Center include:

3D mammography technology for screenings and diagnostic testing
Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
Breast ultrasounds
Digital diagnostic mammograms
Digital screening mammograms
Sentinel node imaging (evaluates the lymph nodes)

In addition to advanced imaging technology, we use computer-aided detection as an extra layer of defense in identifying breast cancer. After your imaging specialist reads your results, computer-aided detection may be used to find any small abnormalities warranting a second look.

When to get a breast mammogram

Screening mammograms are the most common type of breast imaging performed to screen for breast cancer. However, mammograms are often supplemented by additional breast imaging exams to ensure every patient receives the thorough screening they need. This is particularly important for women with dense breast tissue, which can make mammograms more difficult to read.

Breast diagnostic services

If an abnormality is found on an imaging exam, we can perform additional tests and biopsies, if needed. Not every abnormality found on a mammogram is related to breast cancer, but a breast biopsy will help us make an accurate diagnosis. Our biopsy services include:

MRI-guided breast biopsies
Stereotactic breast biopsies
Ultrasound-guided breast biopsies

Our doctors also offer preoperative needle localization procedures to precisely locate breast abnormalities before breast surgery. This helps with presurgical planning and allows our breast surgeons to quickly locate the targeted breast area during surgery.

If a breast cancer diagnosis is confirmed, our staff can easily connect you with our hospital's oncology services to form a plan of treatment and care.

Breast MRI risk assessment for breast cancer

In accordance with guidelines provided by the American Cancer Society (ACS), we perform screening breast MRIs for breast cancer risk assessments. Women with a strong family history of breast cancer or other related risk factors may desire a risk assessment. If you have a lifetime breast cancer risk of 20 percent or more, a screening MRI may be beneficial to your long-term health.
