Cancer Care
Treating breast cancer at The Tatiana Copeland Breast Center.
Designed by breast health specialists, The Tatiana Copeland Breast Center at Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute is devoted exclusively to breast care, breast cancer diagnosis and breast cancer treatment. The Breast Center is available to anyone who needs routine breast cancer screenings or further diagnostic procedures and treatments.
We ensure the most thorough assessment, plus the convenience and peace of mind of coordinated care for diagnosis, treatment planning and counseling.
Capabilities and services include:
Breast cancer can often be detected early through self-awareness and regular screenings. Familiarize yourself with the common signs and symptoms of breast cancer, and don’t hesitate to schedule an appointment with a health care provider if you notice any changes.
The following are some signs of breast cancer:
One out of every eight women will face breast cancer at some point in their lives. That is why the emphasis at the Breast Center is on education and early detection for women of all ages. We offer a wealth of printed materials in our welcoming resource room to help you learn more about breast health and the different stages of breast cancer.
In addition to traditional imaging and the latest ultrasound techniques, the Breast Center offers 3D mammography (digital breast tomosynthesis). 3D mammography can detect slightly more cancers than 2D mammography and may decrease the need to return for extra images. 3D mammography can be a useful screening tool for women with dense breast tissue.
At the Breast Center, we are committed to providing comprehensive breast care, education and support to the community we serve. If there is an abnormal finding on a mammogram, we offer the full support of a broad care team that includes radiologists, surgeons, radiation oncologists, genetic counselors and support staff. Our team of experts discusses results and treatment options with you and guides you through next steps in the process. This may include putting a plan in motion that is customized to your unique situation.
