New 3D mammography screening site opens at Columbiana center
COLUMBIANA — Mercy Health and the Joanie Abdu Comprehensive Breast Care Center unveiled a new 3D mammography screening site today at Mercy Health's Columbiana Imaging Center, 107 Royal Birkdale Road.
"This new site is another illustration of Dr. Abdu's vision of care that everyone can access, regardless of geography or financial ability," Juli Dulay, manager of the Joanie Abdu Comprehensive Breast Care Center, said in a news release. "3D technology allows for more detailed images of the breast, improving cancer detection rates and reducing unnecessary callbacks."
The screening site will be open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and is able to offer screenings regardless of financial ability through Joanie's Promise, a program of the Mercy Health Foundation — Mahoning Valley that pays for screenings and diagnostics. Additional diagnostic services can be accessed at the Joanie Abdu Comprehensive Center's main campus at St. Elizabeth Youngstown Hospital. Screenings are also available on the Joanie-on-the-Go mobile unit and at the Joanie Abdu center in Poland.
To schedule an appointment, call 330-306-5411.
