Making Breast Cancer Surgery E i ffor W Easier Women
Seeking a more compassionate and precise approach to breast cancer tumor localization, Dr. Jared Linebarger, breast surgeon at Upland Hills Health, has adopted the SCOUT® wire-free radar localization system during breast preserving surgeries. (Localization refers to how the tissue that is to be removed is marked in order for the surgeon to locate it.)
Dr. Jared Linebarger
General Surgeon Specializing in Breast Surgery
“For me as a surgeon, and for our patients, the SCOUT system allows for a better overall experience. We get more precise targeting, convenience in scheduling and better outcomes, surgically and cosmetically,” explained Dr. Linebarger. “This is the best way for me to deliver excellent patient care.” Learn from the surgeon himself at YouTube.com Search Upland Hills Health Dodgeville Webinar Breast Health Savi Scout
