Easier Access to Cancer Care

Thanks to your generosity, in 2017 we brought Tomosynthesis (Tomo) or 3D mammography to Providence Seaside Hospital.
The quality of the image in Tomo is very detailed, which can help improve cancer detection rates and decrease callback rates, giving patients more peace of mind. Radiologists are able to detect small cancers earlier with greater accuracy in identifying the size, shape and location of any abnormalities.
Fewer biopsies and tests are required with Tomo. In 2020, we added new, minimally invasive breast biopsy capabilities for north coast patients. This technology is used for patients with an abnormality detected on their mammogram or breast ultrasound.
With this new specialized equipment, patients who need to have a suspicious area examined in more detail can have it done close to home.
