LVHN’s Breast Cancer Care Team

Offering advanced screening technologies and treatments close to home

Breast cancer screening plays a key role in every woman's health care experience as they get older. With national screening guidelines recommending annual mammograms starting at age 40 (or earlier depending on one’s risk factors), this screening test becomes a normal part of many to-do lists and routines.

However, where someone goes for a mammogram and recommended follow-up care is incredibly important, especially when it comes to the facility’s expertise and offerings.

The care team at Lehigh Valley Topper Cancer Institute, part of Lehigh Valley Health Network, knows this all too well and is dedicated to providing state-of-the-art and individualized breast health services at every stage of the care journey.

MAMMOGRAPHY EXCELLENCE

The Cancer Institute’s mammography technologists and radiologists perform and read over 85,000 mammograms a year at 17 locations (including a mobile mammography coach). They were the first cancer center in the region to offer 3D mammograms and are certified by the American College of Radiology® as a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence.

STATE-OF-THE-ART BREAST CANCER TREATMENT

When it comes to breast cancer treatment, all patients seen at the Cancer Institute have access to a nurse navigator and a multidisciplinary clinic team approach to their care, where clinicians from multiple specialties work together to determine the best treatment plan specific to their diagnosis.

The Cancer Institute also provides access to a wide range of clinical trials that may provide additional care options not available at other institutions. It is also a member of the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Alliance, which brings even more lifesaving care options to the community.

MAKE AN APPOINTMENT

Whether due for an annual mammogram or seeking a second opinion for a breast cancer diagnosis, Lehigh Valley Topper Cancer Institute is here for everyone. Call today or visit online to get started.
