Mammogram Monday; Get the Picture

in MCMC’s Mammogram Mondays events during the summer months.

provided at each event every Monday from Noon – 5 p.m. during July and

“Starting at age 40, annual digital mammograms are a must for every
woman,” said Jean Hoover, registered mammographer at MCMC. “An
occasional mammogram doesn’t provide enough protection against breast
cancer – by providing digital mammography, we are revolutionizing breast
care by providing our patients with state-of-the-art mammograms that
are faster, easier and more comfortable than ever before, while
providing our physicians with highly detailed images to use in the
