Find Out Why 3D Mammography is Smarter at North Oaks

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to spread awareness about the importance of finding breast cancer early at its most treatable stages. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, breast cancer is one of the most common kinds of cancer in women. About 1 in 8 women born today in the U.S. will get breast cancer at some point. The good news is that most women can survive breast cancer if it’s found and treated early. In this segment of Tangi 95.5 FM's "North Oaks Health Notes," Dr. Laura Leonards, an Interventional Radiologist with North Oaks Imaging Associates, talks about North Oaks Health System’s new additions to its arsenal of breast cancer detection tools – 3D Mammography and Artificial Intelligence.
