Breast Imaging Center of Excellence

The Carol Milgard Breast Center is committed to providing patient-centered care that includes a focus on respect for individual patients, providing a caring and comforting atmosphere, a facility with leading-edge technology, and hiring radiologists and technologists who specialize in high-quality breast imaging that leads to excellent patient care.

The American College of Radiology (ACR) has recognized the Carol Milgard Breast Center as a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence.  A facility is designated a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence by achieving accreditation in all breast imaging modalities. The ACR only grants the gold seal of accreditation when a breast center provides patients the highest level of imaging quality and patient safety. We are accredited in all of the ACR’s breast imaging programs: mammography, breast ultrasound, ultrasound-guided breast biopsy, stereotactic breast biopsy and breast MRI.

The breast center has voluntarily participated in this rigorous review process to assure we meet nationally accepted standards. Our patients can be confident that our staff is well qualified, through both education and certification, to perform and interpret their medical images. Our patients can also be assured that our equipment is appropriate for the test or treatment they receive and our breast center meets or exceeds quality assurance and safety guidelines.

The Carol Milgard Breast Center’s Breast Imaging Center of Excellence accreditation is a clear indication to patients and referring providers that the breast center is committed to providing the highest quality of care.
