a comfortable waiting room, and private changing rooms.

Women's Imaging Services
Whether you need an appointment for routine testing or advanced treatment,
we strive to provide individualized, state-of-the-art care for all women
in our community.
From screening and diagnostic testing to treatment, our staff helps patients
every step of the way. Our comprehensive, cutting-edge technologies and
services include:
-
Digital Mammography - These mammograms allow radiologists to manipulate contrast on the image
results, making it easier to diagnose problems.
-
Breast Biopsy - In this procedure, problem areas in the breast are removed and examined
for signs of cancer.
-
Bone Density - Using a bone mineral density test, a physician can take a picture of
your bone and look for signs of damage, such as osteoporosis or fractures.
-
Breast Surgery - If our team spots something troubling during a breast MRI, our team of
skilled surgeons are prepared to perform breast surgery.
-
Stereotactic Biopsy - Stereotactic biopsy is often used on breasts to look for microcalcifications—and
early sign of breast cancer.
-
Ultrasound-Guided Biopsy - In these less-invasive biopsies, a radiologist uses an ultrasound to
spot an abnormality and remove a sample of the tissue for testing.
-
MRI Breast Scans and Biopsy - BHS uses advanced breast MRI’s to obtain image of the body’s
soft tissue using magnetic field and radio waves, instead of X-rays.
-
Abdominal/Pelvic Ultrasound - These ultrasounds are safe, radiation-free methods to examine the pelvis
or abdomen for issues. They are often used to check reproductive organs.
-
Obstetrical Ultrasound - These ultrasounds are use during pregnancy to view the fetus in the mother’s uterus.
The BHS Women's Center team of technologists, nurse navigators, and
specialized physicians offers high quality comprehensive care for breast
health in a friendly, supportive, and caring environment.
