Breast Health

Taking charge of your health begins with greater knowledge. Nationally, all women have a 1 in 8 chance of developing breast cancer over their lifetime, so screening mammography is one test you can't afford to miss. At Lowell General Hospital, we offer the most advanced breast imaging technologies you’ll find anywhere, including 3D mammography (tomosynthesis), breast MRI, ultrasound, and stereotactic breast biopsy to name just a few. And with a team of highly trained breast experts, it’s all the right care, right here. Learn more

Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Program

Do you need more information about preventive treatments such as hormone therapy, or have you thought about genetic testing to find out your risk for the disease?
Our new program opens on September 11, 2018 at the Lowell General Hospital cancer center annex located at the main campus. Learn more about the Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Program.
