Cancer Prevention
Memorial Cancer Institute is on your side to help identify people at high risk of developing cancer and doing whatever possible to prevent it. Our genetics program helps you if you have a family history of breast cancer, colorectal cancer, gynecological cancer, melanoma or other types of cancers.
Our genetic high-risk assessment helps numerous patients. We’ll work with you and your primary care physician to help you with diet, lifestyle and other changes you can make to help prevent cancer. Memorial Cancer Institute’s lung cancer program works with those who have multiple risk factors on smoking cessation and monitoring for early detection.
Cancer Screenings for Early Detection
Memorial Cancer Institute’s radiology and imaging and women’s imaging programs offer a variety of scans and screenings for early detection and to treat cancer as early as possible. In addition to routine cancer screenings recommended for everyone of certain ages, we offer innovative screenings such as:
- Tomosynthesis, a revolutionary type of mammogram
- Lung CT scans for those at high risk for lung cancer.
- Endobronchial Ultrasound, or EBUS, and other innovative, minimally invasive lung cancer screenings
- Specialized biopsies for lymphoma testing.
