Mammography

Wing Memorial Hospital offers screening and diagnostic and digital mammography services. The new digital low-rad Selenia model was installed in 2007 and Wing Memorial Hospital is the first hospital in the Quaboag Hills area to offer digital mammography. In addition, breast ultrasound is available, as is breast MRI through a mobile unit provided by Philips Imaging.

Computer-aided detection (CAD) is used by our radiologists as "a second pair of eyes" when reading mammograms and breast MRIs. The radiologist reviews the exam then activates the CAD software to re-evaluate the marked area before issuing a final report. The software identifies features on medical images and brings them to the attention of the radiologist.

Appointments for routine screenings are currently being scheduled within a week.
