Breast cancer won’t wait – everything else must

This sense of urgency is at the core of PINK Breast Center’s ongoing awareness initiative. As a part of ImageCare Radiology, PINK Breast Center is stressing the significance of a yearly mammogram for women above 40, particularly during October – Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

With 15 locations across North Jersey, PINK Breast Center’s campaign starts in Paterson and spreads to other areas through mobile billboards. A group of women wearing pink #EverythingElseCanWait T-shirts will also interact with local communities, distributing essential information and materials.

Andreia Santos-Lima, CEO of ImageCare Radiology, hopes the campaign will emphasize the need for preventive measures. She says, “Our campaign acts as a reminder that women’s health cannot be put on hold. Having an annual mammogram is crucial for early detection of potential health concerns. Identifying issues early allows for more effective planning and customized treatment options.”

According to the American Cancer Society, around 43,250 women may succumb to breast cancer. Early diagnosis is vital in treating the disease effectively; very early-stage cases have a 97-100% chance of being cured.

PINK Breast Center offers state-of-the-art AI-powered 3D mammography technology to ensure the most accurate early diagnosis for women.

“Our skilled team and cutting-edge equipment set us apart,” Santos-Lima said while emphasizing community outreach aspects of their current awareness campaign, particularly in underprivileged communities. “Healthcare involves community engagement. Since not everyone has insurance coverage, spreading awareness about mammograms, preventive care, and early detection is crucial.”
