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
