Get a Mammogram...
It Could Save Your Life.
One out of every eight women will develop breast cancer at some point in her life. The good
news is that breast cancer can be found early and treated successfully by having a
mammogram. Mammography can detect a cancerous lesion years before it can ever be seen
or felt.
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month ~ and a perfect time to schedule a
mammogram. The Mammography Imaging Service of Perry Hospital features the most up
to-date equipment, a highly trained staff, full accreditation by the American College of
Radiology and certification by the Food and Drug Administration.
Call 987-3600 today to schedule your mammogram.
