Mammography images are digitally transferred to enable our radiologist to see images promptly.  

NEW IN OHIO:  There are no longer any age restrictions when receiving a routine mammogram. On September 23, 2022, Ohio House Bill 371, or the “The Breast Cancer Bill,” was signed into law. This requires insurers to provide coverage for a yearly mammogram to all women regardless of age or risk factor. Individuals can now obtain an annual mammogram screening with no age restrictions.

When breast cancer is detected early, before there are symptoms,
the five-year survival rate is 99%.

Breast cancer takes years to develop. Early in the disease, most cancers of the breast cause no symptoms. According to the American Cancer Society , the 5-year relative survival rate for localized breast cancer, cancer that has not spread outside the breast, is 99 percent. For those whose cancer has spread outside the breast to nearby structures or lymph nodes, the survival rate is 86 percent.   If the cancer has spread to other organs such as lungs, bone marrow, liver or brain, the five-year survival rate is 29%.   

The important thing is that you make annual mammography screening a top priority for yourself and the women you care about.

You deserve the best possible care, that’s why we’ve made sure our staff is equipped with the most advanced mammography capabilities to help you stay healthy.
