Mercy Health and Joanie Abdu Comprehensive Breast Care Center have opened a 3-d mammogram in Columbiana County.
The new site is at Mercy Health’s Columbiana Imaging Center on Royal Birkdale Road.
“The 3D generation provides more detailed photographs of the breast, cancer screening rates and the reduction of unnecessary withdrawals,” said Juli Dulay, director of the Joanie Abdu Comprehensive Breast Care Center
The screening site will be open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and is to evaluate women, regardless of their monetary abilities, through Joanie’s Promise, a Mercy Health Foundation program, Mahoning Valley that will pay for tests and diagnoses.
Additional diagnostics will be performed on the main campus of the Joanie Abdu Comprehensive Center at St. Elizabeth Youngstown Hospital. Projections can also be obtained on the Joanie-on-the-Go cell unit, one of the few cell 3-d mammography equipment in the state, and on the joanie Abdu mammogram website, Poland.
