How In-House Mammography Helps Patients
Proven Statistics
Women who receive an annual mammography screening followed by additional studies, if needed, can decrease breast cancer mortality by up to 30% [1]. The 5-year survival rate for breast cancer is 99% for early stage diagnosis but only 28% in later-stage disease. In-house mammograms encourage patients to get their screenings done annually. [2]
Removes Common Barriers to Screening
Do your patients keep putting off their annual mammogram? Maybe they give these examples as excuses:
- "I don’t have enough time”
- “Mammograms are painful”
- “What if I need to take time off work”
- “Breast cancer doesn’t run in my family”
- “Mammograms are for older women”
In-house mammograms remove these common barriers to screening for women. Our company is working to increase compliance by helping physician practices provide their patients with convenient
in- office mammograms.
