Services

Mobile Mammography

Preventative Screening

Early detection increases survivability by bringing a quicker response to cancer. A part of being ahead of the game is to have annual checkups, monthly self-exams and paying attention to one’s body.

This form of mammogram is used to evaluate a patient with abnormal clinical findings or abnormal screening mammogram.
