Clinton Hospital offers a variety of diagnostic services for the detection of
cancer in a convenient, community-based location. Services available at the
hospital include mammography, endoscopy, cystoscopy and diagnostic imaging, such
as CT (computed tomography) scanning and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging).
Medical studies have shown that regular health screenings, such as annual
mammograms for women over the age of 40 and endoscopies for the detection of
colorectal cancers, are key to the early detection of cancers and successful
treatments.
Surgeons at Clinton Hospital also provide
limited inpatient and one-day surgical treatments for different types of
cancers, including:
- Breast
- Gastrointestinal
- Genitourinary
- Skin cancer
As a member of UMass Memorial Health Care, Clinton Hospital patients have
