Next month is breast cancer awareness month. Breast health is extremely vital for women (and men), especially since early detection is still a woman’s best defense against breast cancer.

NuHealth’s breast imaging center offers the ideal combination of technology and clinical expertise. Providing the latest in diagnostic imaging and treatment options for woman of all ages, NuHealth women’s breast health and exam center is an important visit to make.

 

The new all-digital mammography unit quickly provides a highly detailed picture that can be magnified to zoom in on potential abnormalities. Recent studies have shown that digital mammography is significantly better in screening woman under 50. This could significantly aid in the early detection process and save the lives of many women. 

NuHealth holds the highest standard of patient care offering full services to ensure optimum health. The breast imaging center is also equipped to provide breast ultrasound exams, breast MRI’s and digital stereotactic breast biopsies and is the only imaging center in the area to include a clinical breast exam as a standard part of every mammography.
