Digital Mammography
The Mammography Department at Washington Adventist Hospital is pleased to offer digital mammography services. Digital mammography not only provides versatility and practicality, but most importantly - increased quality.
You Have the Power to Fight Breast Cancer
What's the most important thing you can do to help fight breast cancer? Take control of your own health to increase the odds of early detection.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), after skin cancer, breast cancer is the second most common form of cancer diagnosed in U.S. women. The American Cancer Society also recommends that all women, 40 years and over, receive an annual mammogram to aid in early detection.
Mammography, the best tool for the detection of breast cancer, uses low levels of radiation and does not increase your risk of developing breast cancer. Digital mammography enables the storage of high-quality copies of your film, allowing for faster and more accurate results.
Your Best Protection is Early Detection
Call hospital scheduling at 301-891-5053 between 8:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. daily to schedule your digital mammogram appointment today.
