Early
in the 20th century, women's health issues were
something you only discussed in hushed voices, especially
the presence of breast tumors or “growths.”
There
was no method of early detection and the radical
surgery did not produce a cure because the cancer
spread beyond the breast. |
| Mammography
makes such a large difference, because it can find
tumors early when they are still small and more likely
to be treated successfully.
Thankfully,
times have changed, and Women’s
Diagnostic Center is proud to have contributed
to those changes. |
| Women's
Diagnostic Center
- has
provided mammography services since 1986 and employs
mammography registered female technicians
- is
accredited by the American College of Radiology
and the Food and Drug Administration
- ensures
that all services not only meet, but exceed guidelines
established by the Mammography Quality Standards
Act (MQSA)
- has
implemented a quality assurance program that
- documents
- monitors
- and
measures patient satisfaction by responding
to all patient and client calls/concerns within
24 hours
- has
on staff a full time Radiologist who reads between
9,000-10,000 mammograms per year,
when the MQSA requires only 480.
