Digital Mammography Is Now Available In Guam

Digital technology for the early detection of breast cancer is now available in Guam. A certification was given from the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to Guam Radiology Consultants to start using the full-field digital mammography unit at its Tamuning facility. Guam Radiology Consultants also got another certification from the American College of Radiology (ACR). After having both certifications, the clinic is now ready to begin providing digital mammography service.
