Digital Mammography
Digital Mammography is just one SCCH Radiology Department service that provides high quality, technological advanced healthcare to area patients. It offers a number of advantages over traditional mammograms. A digital mammogram delivers computer images that can be electronically enhanced by the radiologist, enabling the doctor to zoom in, magnify, and optimize different parts of the breast tissue using just four standard pictures. Readability and interpretation of the images are enhanced, so the physician can focus on areas of concern. In addition, these digital images can be stored on the computer and transferred throughout the patient’s care network.
Digital mammograms are generally recommended for women with dense breast tissue, breast implants, or for those who have had abnormalities in the past. Women in the Sullivan County area will no longer require referral to facilities outside of the county for their annual mammogram. Now, they can receive up-to-date imaging in a comfortable environment, close to their home and workplace.
A digital mammography exam generally takes about half the time of traditional mammograms, and there is less chance of being called back to retake images.
To schedule an appointment for a digital mammogram, please call (812) 268-4311, ext 2281.
Screening Echocardiograms for Student Athletes
In conjunction with the Sullivan County Community Hospital Foundation and cardiologist Dr. Emmanuel Favila, SCCH’s Radiology Department provides screening echocardiograms to student athletes at no cost to the student. Athletes eligible are those from 6th grade to 12th grade. Screening Echocardiograms are used to detect certain congenital heart defects which may lead to problems when the student participates in sports activities. Appointments may be made by contacting the Radiology Department at (812) 268-4311, ext 2281.
A release form must be signed by a parent or guardian before the test can be performed.
