Mobile mammography service to visit Cold Lake
Women ages 50-74 — the group most at risk of developing breast cancer — will have local access to mammography services when the Alberta Health Services Screen Test program arrives in the community next month.
A mobile mammography trailer will be stationed at the Cold Lake Healthcare Centre (314 25 Street) on Feb. 24, 27 and 28, and March 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6. Residents can book an appointment or learn more about the program by calling 1-800-667-0604.
Screen Test is improving access to cancer screening for hundreds of women in northern Alberta communities where mammography is not readily available.
A mammogram is an X-ray of the breast and has proven to be the most effective way to detect breast cancer. Early detection allows for a greater number of options for treatment and a better chance of survival.
Due to COVID-19, Screen Test is taking precautions to ensure the safety of our clients and staff. Details will be shared when you call to book your appointment.
