We utilize women’s imaging suites as a space dedicated solely to women’s imaging needs. These separate areas combine a variety of calming, spa-themed amenities to alleviate the anxiety of women facing sometimes stressful medical procedures, whether routine or high risk. Made possible, in part, through a gift to The Medical Center Foundation by The Medical Center Auxiliary, this area provides:
- a comfortable, private spa-like atmosphere;
- separate dressing rooms and warm robes;
- private waiting areas for screening and diagnostic patients having mammograms;
- lighted scenery panels in each mammography room;
- an education room with a flat panel TV for patients to view educational DVD’s on breast related topics;
- and gourmet refreshments including lemon infused water, sugared fruit and an assortment of coffee and teas.
The women’s imaging suite offers the latest technology in women’s imaging including:
- Digital mammography
- 3D mammography
- Ultrasound
- Stereotactic vacuum-assisted core breast biopsy
- Breast MRI
- MRI-guided breast biopsy
- PET/CT
- Bone density
