Mammography
Mammography
Mammograms are X-ray images of breast tissue used by a radiologist to detect any changes or abnormalities. Mammograms play a key role in early breast cancer detection and help decrease breast cancer deaths. 3D mammography services are available in each of our Monument Health markets: Custer, Lead-Deadwood, Rapid City, Spearfish and Sturgis.
PREVENTION AND DETECTION RECOMMENDATIONS:
- Conduct monthly breast exams
- Get your annual check-up
- Get your mammogram annually after age 45
FACTS ABOUT MAMMOGRAMS:
- Mammograms are the best weapon we have against breast cancer.
- A woman’s lifetime chance of developing breast cancer is 1 in 8.
- A new breast cancer is diagnosed every 2.5 minutes.
- One American woman dies from breast cancer every 13 minutes.
- Nearly 40,000 women die from breast cancer each year.
- About 2,000 male breast cancer cases will be diagnosed this year, and about 400 men will die from the disease.
- Mammograms can find breast cancer early, when it is too small to be felt or seen.
- The older you are, the more important it is for you to get regular mammograms and clinical breast exams from your doctor or other qualified health professional.
- Early detection of breast cancer saves lives.

GENIUS
3D MAMMOGRAPHY
Offered in each of our Monument Health markets: Custer, Lead-Deadwood, Rapid City, Spearfish and Sturgis. This new technology improves early detection and treatment of breast cancer. Using three-dimensional technology, radiologists can better detect breast cancer deep within the tissue, where it might be hidden during a traditional two-dimensional mammogram. With 3D’s clarity and depth, fewer patients will have to return for second mammograms. Patients with dense breasts, such as younger women, will have a better chance of early detection with 3D mammography.
