Hunterdon Regional Cancer Center Encourages Women to Schedule a Mammogram

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month…The Hunterdon Regional Cancer Center wants you to be an advocate for Breast Cancer Awareness.  Getting a mammogram is an important step women can take to protect their health.  The best protection is early detection.  Help spread the word.  Encourage your mother, sisters, daughters, grandmothers, aunts, co-workers, neighbors and friends to schedule their mammogram.  

Breast Screening Guidelines for Women:

  • Clinical breast examinations every 1-3 years from age 25-39, then annually from age 40 on. 
  • Begin annual screening mammography at age 40 years. 
  • Monthly self breast exams starting at age 18 years old, a week after their period when hormones are lowest. Women should be familiar with how their breasts normally look and feel and should report any changes to their health care provider.

To schedule an appointment with Hunterdon Women’s Imaging Center in Flemington or Advanced Imaging at Bridgewater, call 908-237-4150.
