MERCY HEALTH MOBILE MAMMOGRAPHY VAN VISITS AREA LOCATIONS THROUGHOUT JULY

The Joanie Abdu Comprehensive Breast Care Center Mobile Mammography Unit will be traveling around Northeast Ohio throughout the month of July.

The JACBCC was created to deliver the most accurate prevention, early detection, diagnosis and support services in the region, and the Center’s mobile unit provides easier access to quality care to women all over the Mahoning Valley.

The state-of-the-art mobile unit uses the same high-quality technology and equipment to perform the mammogram that can be found in the JACBCC.

It was also the first mobile unit in Eastern Ohio to offer 3D mammography, which allows for a more thorough breast examination.
