Their 42 years of combined experience ensures that you will receive expert and personalized care. "We love helping patients, and with annual low dose CT lung screen, we are able to help our patients identify issues earlier. We know our patients as friends, neighbors, and family, and encourage them to be proactive about their care. We know our patients and their families, and care for them like they're our own."

We are pleased to introduce the latest development in the fight against breast cancer iCAD’s Profound AI for digital breast tomosyntheses (DBT), also known as 3D mammography. Unlike traditional two-dimensional mammograms, DBT sweeps in a slight arc over the breast, taking hundreds of images of the breast tissue. A computer then uses these images to produce a layered 3D image of the breast tissue. This 3D image provides greater detail and allows the radiologist to see within the breast layer by layer to find cancer cells earlier than ever before. https://www.navicenthealth.org//navicent-health-adopts-pro

It’s an important celebration and it allows them to show that we’re out there beating cancer, and indeed it is something that you can survive." https://41nbc.com//navicent-raises-breast-cancer-awarenes/

During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we spotlight LaTasha, our lead mammography technologist at Breast Care Center, Navicent Health, and a Navicent teammate for the past 14 years. I love being in patient care and being able to celebrate with them when they get a good outcome. Just knowing that I am part of that journey of a patient is not just inspiring, but also rewarding because you are there at their lowest moment. Sometimes, even a smile makes their day better.

It was so great to be able to see everyone at our Breast Cancer Survivor Care-A-Van event!
