Screening Mammogram
(In-Clinic)
We provide state-of-the-art annual screening mammograms, emphasizing the importance of early detection in breast cancer, which has a 99% survival rate when identified early. Regular screenings are vital for recognizing potential issues at an early stage, ultimately ensuring the best possible outcomes for women. At BCDC, we encourage annual screening mammograms to help women detect breast cancer early, when it is most treatable. We recommend beginning annual screenings at age 40, or earlier if there is a first-degree family history of breast cancer. Regular screening mammograms are a critical component of proactive breast health.
A referral is not required to schedule your mammogram; however, you do need a primary care provider. If you don’t currently have one, we partner with Interior Community Health to ensure your mammogram report is sent to a trusted provider.
We are committed to making this essential service accessible to all women, regardless of insurance status, because every woman deserves access to life-saving care.
Schedule your annual mammogram today and take an important step in prioritizing your health.
Introducing our Dense Breast Program, featuring Automated Breast Ultrasound (ABUS), a supplemental screening designed specifically for women with dense breast tissue. ABUS works in conjunction with your annual mammogram to provide detailed 3D imaging, increasing the chances of detecting cancers that might otherwise go unnoticed.
To qualify for ABUS, women must meet the criteria for dense breast tissue, and a referral from your provider is required.
ABUS will be available starting spring 2025, continuing our mission to offer life-saving services regardless of insurance status.
Our Mobile Mammogram Unit travels across Alaska from April through September, providing high-quality breast screenings for women in remote or underserved areas.
If you’re interested in learning more about our mobile mammogram services or believe your site could be an eligible addition to our route, contact our office today. Together, we can make breast health accessible to every corner of our state.

Education & Awareness
Knowledge is power. At BCDC, we’re passionate about educating our community and all Alaskans on breast health and early detection. Through community events, informational resources, and advocacy programs, we empower women with the tools and confidence to prioritize their health.
The American College of Radiology Society of Breast Imaging and BCDC recommend that women age forty and above should have a mammogram every year and continue to as long as they are in good health.
