Breast Health - Mammography
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women other than skin cancer, and is second only to lung cancer as the leading cause of cancer death in women. But early detection from self exams and mammography is saving lives. We stress the importance of regular mammograms and offer the advanced technology of stereotactic breast imaging. In addition, our skilled radiology staff provides timely responses to physicians so that our patients aren’t left waiting on results. Please call 706-481-7535 for scheduling needs.
Osteoporosis - Bone Densitometry Scan
Osteoporosis afflicts one in four women. We're fighting the disease through our Osteoporosis-Bone Scan, which uses DEXA (Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) scan technology to assist in early detection. With the most precise and economical means of early detection available, DEXA can pinpoint early changes and help physicians monitor their patients. To schedule a bone density procedure, please call our Central Scheduling Department at 706-481-7535 for an appointment.
