Breast Cancer Care in Central Florida
BOB体育 Leesburg Hospital offers advanced 3-D technology to detect breast cancer with our GE Senographe Pristina three-dimensional tomographic mammogram unit. The Pristina takes diagnostic imaging to a new level and finds more cancers than 2-D mammography alone.
In tandem with the Pristina, our SensorySuite creates a spa-like environment for patients. BOB体育 Leesburg Hospital is one of only a handful of facilities in Florida to use SensorySuite, in which women as well as men getting tested for breast cancer can control the sights they see on a screen, the sounds they hear, and the aromas they smell. SensorySuite provides a soothing atmosphere rather than a cold, sterile setting.
The physical features of the Pristina have soft, rounded edges to help reduce anxiety, and a handheld remote control that enables patients to set their own compression level. Patients are able to get better compression and comfort level when they set it themselves 鈥� and the Pristina unit is still able to produce such high-quality images.
Schedule a mammogram
All women should have an annual screening mammogram beginning at age 40. Women with certain risk factors should discuss an appropriate screening program with their physician.
