Screening

Regular mammogram screenings are the best preventative measure you can take for identifying and combating breast cancer. Two options are available to our patients. Screening mammograms use low-dose radiation to create detailed images of your breasts’ makeup and can help identify masses or malignancies that may be forming. Screening mammograms are recommended for any woman over the age of 40. Diagnostic mammograms are more comprehensive and targeted in scope for patients who have found a lump through self-exam or during an annual mammography check-up. At Surgery Group LA, we specialize in diagnosing and treating breast cancer, using both screening and diagnostic mammograms. Our medical team will ensure you feel at ease and are happy to go over your results and answer any questions you may have.
