Breast cancer screening
Best practices in screening for breast cancer vary from person to person based on a range of personal and genetic factors. However, most women should follow these guidelines:
- Begin monthly self-breast exams at 20 years old
- Begin yearly clinical breast exams by your physician at 20 years old
- Begin yearly mammograms, in addition to your self-breast exams and clinical breast exams, at 40 years old (for women with an average risk of developing breast cancer)
Women at high risk for developing breast cancer may need to begin breast cancer screening earlier. They may also require supplemental screening tools. Talk to your healthcare provider about your risk factors for breast cancer and what type of screening schedule is right for you.
Breast cancer diagnostics
If an abnormality is detected on your mammogram, we are here to help reduce your anxiety and get quick results. Our team is committed to providing answers fast to decrease the time between detection and diagnosis.
You will typically be notified of your screening results within 48 hours if there is an abnormality. Your physician will be contacted immediately with your results for further review.
To diagnose breast cancer, we offer:
Digital stereotactic breast biopsy
A digital stereotactic breast biopsy is a less invasive alternative to a surgical biopsy. It involves obtaining a tissue sample using a vacuum-assisted device and a small sampling probe. The system gathers multiple samples to accurately identify the presence of early-stage breast cancer.
Stereotactic biopsies are performed on an outpatient basis and last about one hour. The biopsy will be sent to our hospital's pathologists who will review the sample and send a report to your referring physician.
Additionally, a stereotactic breast biopsy offers less internal scarring compared to an open, surgical biopsy. This makes it easier to detect any abnormalities on future mammograms.
Digital breast localization
A digital breast localization is a procedure that locates a specific area in the breast prior to surgically removing the tissue. We use this procedure to guide your surgeon to the localized area on the day of surgery.
Digital breast localization is performed on an outpatient basis and requires at least 45 minutes to complete.

Breast surgery
If breast cancer is diagnosed, we are here to support you every step of the way. We have highly trained breast surgeons on staff who are available for consultation within 48 hours of receiving a physician referral.
Surgical treatment for breast cancer focuses on removing cancerous tissue from the breast. This can be accomplished through several procedures, including:
- Lumpectomy — This surgery removes only the cancerous portion of the breast and conserves the rest of the healthy breast tissue.
- Single mastectomy — This surgery removes all breast tissue in a single breast.
- Double mastectomy — This surgery removes all breast tissue in both breasts.
