Living with Breast Cancer
A lump. An abnormal mammogram. Breast biopsy, then … what? For many women, a breast cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming. One day you’re living life to the fullest, the next your world can feel like it’s falling apart. If it happens to you, you’re not alone: According to the American Cancer Society, U.S. women have a 1 in 8 chance of developing breast cancer, the second most-common cancer among women. While diagnosed cases are rising slightly, the survival rate among women over 50 is also increasing. That trend is thought to come from increased awareness, screenings like 3D mammogram to detect cancer earlier — and from better treatments. You can live with a breast cancer diagnosis. We’re here to help.
A Breakthrough in Breast Biopsy Comfort and Efficiency
Our passion to offer innovative tools that advance breast health drove the decision to bring the Affirm Breast Biopsy Guidance System and the Brevera Breast Biopsy System with Corluma Imaging Technology to patients at Upland Hills Health. This imaging technology allows physicians to make informed clinical decisions with confidence and save valuable time. Fast procedures mean less time that a patient is under compression and can result in a more positive patient experience.
Making Breast Cancer Surgery
Easier For Women
In seeking a more compassionate and precise approach to breast cancer tumor localization, Upland Hills Health has adopted the SAVI SCOUT® wire-free radar localization system during breast preserving surgeries. Localization refers to how the tissue that is to be removed is marked in order for the surgeon to locate it.
“The SAVI SCOUT system allows for a better overall experience. We get more precise targeting, convenience in scheduling and better outcomes, surgically and cosmetically,” explains Dr. Jared Linebarger, breast surgeon at Upland Hills Health. “This is the best way for me to deliver excellent patient care.”
Breast Health Specialists
Dr. Jared Linebarger, general surgeon and surgical oncologist is fellowship trained in breast surgery. Dr. Clifford King, a plastic surgery specialist, joins Dr. Linebarger in cases that require breast reconstruction.
