In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Daviess Community Hospital (DCH) is encouraging women to schedule annual mammograms using the hospital’s Genius™ 3D Mammography™ technology. The advanced screening method, approved by the FDA as superior for women with dense breasts, captures detailed, layer-by-layer images to help detect cancers that traditional 2D scans may miss. Andrea Brown, Lead Mammographer at DCH discusses the 3D Mammogram Machine and the difference vs 2D
Studies show that 3D mammography can detect 20–65% more invasive breast cancers and reduce callbacks by up to 40%. Women aged 40 and older, or those at higher risk, are encouraged to schedule their screening by calling (812) 254-9324 or visiting www.dchosp.org/3dmammo.
