HRMC now providing Digital Mammography
 Hendry Regional Medical Center has enhanced its health and wellness services available to women, with the addition of a new Selenia™ digital mammography system from HologicŪ. Digital mammography will allow HRMC to provide its patients with the highest quality of care in the prevention and early detection of breast cancer. Digital mammography allows the radiologist to view the X-ray image more closely, zeroing in on suspicious or concerning areas and enabling them to make decisions about additional images. Digital mammography takes less than half the time of traditional film-based exams.
In conjunction with the digital mammography unit, HRMC is also offering Computer-Aided Detection (CAD). CAD provides a "second read" of the mammogram by a computer. This assists the radiologist in making an accurate diagnosis, like spell check in word processing. HRMC provides a comprehensive scope of services addressing the physical, emotional and educational needs of its patients. Services include screening programs, diagnosis, intervention, treatment, and management of many different diseases of the breast, along with educational and support resources. Each and every patient at HRMC receives personalized care, designed to meet individual needs. HRMC is committed to providing exceptional care to the women and men in the Hendry-Glades community.
