1. Advanced Diagnostic & Screening

• Digital Mammogram: High-resolution X-ray technology capable of detecting early-stage abnormalities, microcalcifications, or small tumors that cannot be felt during a physical exam.

• Breast Ultrasound: Uses high-frequency sound waves to differentiate between solid masses and cysts. Highly effective for younger women or those with dense breast tissue.

2. Clinical Exams & Education

• Breast Examination: Clinical assessment by expert breast surgeons.

• Self-Examination Training: Educating patients on proper self-check techniques (Spiral and Grid methods) for proactive health monitoring.

3. Minimally Invasive Biopsy

• Fine Needle Biopsy: Using a fine needle to aspirate cells for pathological analysis.

• Core Needle Biopsy: Utilizing an Automatic Biopsy Gun to obtain tissue samples for definitive diagnosis without the need for open surgery.

4. Surgical Excellence

• Needle Localization Biopsy: Precision marking of non-palpable lesions using X-ray guidance prior to surgery.

• Surgical Options:

  • Mastectomy: Total breast removal.

  • Breast Conserving Therapy: Removing only the tumor while preserving the breast (combined with radiation therapy).

  • Breast Reconstruction: Restoring the breast shape using TRAM Flap (abdominal tissue), LD Flap (back tissue), or implants.

• Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy: A modern technique to check for cancer spread, significantly reducing the risk of arm swelling (Lymphedema) compared to traditional lymph node removal.
