Mammography
Breast Health
Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death among women. Early detection helps the chances for rapid and successful treatment. We are happy to announce Huntsville Memorial Hospital has opened the Huntsville Women’s Center. This beautiful facility is dedicated to creating a comfortable environment for women in our area to receive women’s health services. Our facility is located behind the hospital in the “Copper Top” buildings in Suite 123.
According to www.breastcancer.org, 1 in 8 women in U.S. will develop breast cancer during their lifetime. Many of these women will not a family history of the disease either—which means that vigilance is needed to detect this cancer as early as possible. The five-year survival rate for breast cancer is more than 90% if it is caught early. These survival rates decrease when the cancer is allowed to mature and spread.
If you are a woman over 40, it is recommended that you receive a yearly mammogram. At our Huntsville Memorial Hospital Radiology Department, we offer the latest in digital mammography testing, helping ensure that our patients can continue to monitor and address their breast health.
Our friendly staff is here to help. Call (936) 439-1457 to schedule an appointment.

HOLOGIC SELENIA DIGITAL MAMMOGRAPHY
Huntsville Memorial Hospital is proud to offer our patients the most advanced digital mammography system on the market today: Hologic Selenia. The Selenia delivers increased diagnostic confidence at a lower radiation dose when compared to conventional mammography. This allows for greater insight for our physicians and earlier, more incisive treatments for our patients.
Huntsville Memorial Hospital also offers you the opportunity to discuss your mammogram with the radiologist during your exam visit. The radiologist will explain the mammogram results and discuss any additional imaging that may be required, and why.
To get more information on how you can schedule your mammogram or Dexa scan at Huntsville Memorial, please call (936) 439-1457.

3D/TOMO MAMMOGRAPHY
One of the most exciting things offered in our facility is 3-D/TOMO mammograms, which may provide a more accurate picture of a woman’s breast health than traditional mammograms. Conventional mammograms produce images from two different angles. 3-D/TOMO mammography, however, takes numerous images as it moves in an arc over the breast of the patient. This creates much more vivid images and allows physicians greater insight into the health of the patient.
In addition to 3-D/TOMO mammograms, the Women’s Center offers ultrasound and Dexa scans.
