Upstate Mammography Van
Upstate Mammography Van
Traveling State-Of-The-Art Mammography serves the central New York region and will be available at NOPL Cicero to adults and seniors. The screenings will be available between 10:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. The mobile screening unit will be parked in the first lot located close to the pole barn.
Appointments are recommended for women who want to get a mammogram, to ensure they will be seen that day, and must be made through Upstate.
To schedule an appointment for a mammogram with the van, women should call 315-464-2588. Appointments can also be requested online at: www.upstate.edu/noexcuses.
To be eligible for a mammogram on the van, women should be 40 years and older; not have had a mammogram in the past 12 months; and not be experiencing breast problems.
The mobile mammography program was started through New York State’s “Get Screened, No Excuses” Breast Cancer Initiative, and continues with the support of Upstate University Hospital. The program's aim is to get rid of obstacles to breast cancer screenings for women in New York.
The mammography van is equipped with a state-of-the-art 3D digital mammogram system, a private exam room, dressing rooms, and a waiting room.
