Breast Health Services at Baptist Health

Chances are, you’ve been touched by breast cancer through a close relative or good friend—or maybe even yourself. You know it impacts not only the patient, but the entire family.

A woman in the United States has a one in eight risk over the course of her lifetime of being diagnosed with breast cancer, making early breast cancer detection key to successful outcomes.

At Baptist Health, we want you to take care of yourself. Set aside time for screening mammograms, as well as any other breast health concerns you may have. Our understanding, knowledgeable team will ensure you receive personalized care tailored to your specific circumstances.

Advanced Technology for Early Detection and Diagnosis

Baptist Health offers convenient care using the latest technology, whether it’s time for your screening mammogram or you need advanced testing to determine if you have breast cancer.

We know a mammogram or other breast procedure can be unsettling. We are committed to making your experience at our breast centers as welcoming and reassuring as possible. Both our Baptist Breast Health Center and Montgomery Breast Center are designated Breast Imaging Centers of Excellence by the American College of Radiology. 

Baptist Health offers many breast imaging options, including the most advanced digital mammography available.

• Digital and 3D mammograms detect breast cancer in its earliest stages when it’s most treatable.
• To create a 3D mammogram, your technologist takes several low-dose images from different angles around the breast. A conventional mammogram creates a two-dimensional image of the breast from two X-ray images of each breast. If your insurance will not cover a 3D mammogram, you can request it for an additional $60 fee.
• Physicians can enhance, magnify or manipulate digital mammograms for further evaluation. Your mammogram will be read three times—twice by radiologists along with computer-aided detection—to give you additional peace of mind.
