Ruby E. Bergman Women's Diagnostic Center
The Ruby E. Bergman Women's Diagnostic Center offers the latest advancements in the detection of breast cancer. Inside the Center's beautiful, spa-like facility, you'll find the very latest in digital mammography. At the Ruby E. Bergman Women's Diagnostic
Center, you will be cared for by our nurturing staff who treat you with the care and compassion you deserve.
At the Center we follow the American College of Radiology (ACR) guidelines for mammography. The ACR recommends annual screening mammography for women starting at age 40. This affords the maximum benefits of reduced breast cancer deaths, less extensive treatments for cancers that are found, decreased chance of
advanced disease at diagnosis and discovery and treatment of high risk lesions. Breast cancer incidence increases substantially around age 40 and even earlier for high risk women and women of color.
Digital Mammography
Emanuel's advanced digital mammography equipment not only captures exceptionally detailed images of the breast, it does so during a shorter, more comfortable exam than traditional mammograms.
Stereotactic Breast Biopsy
Ruby E. Bergman Women's Diagnostic Center inside the Emanuel Cancer Center can now perform stereotactic biopsies for patients who need them. Emanuel's new biopsy table and guidance system is designed to maximize patient comfort throughout the process
and offers optimal imaging capability. We are thrilled to be able to serve all of your breast health needs in one location.
Other Services
Ruby E. Bergman Women's Diagnostic Center also provides patients with pre-operative wire localizations, digital high resolution targeted breast ultrasounds, ultrasound-guided core biopsies, fine needle aspirations, cyst aspirations, and galactography
(ductograms).
