Screening & Diagnosis

Mammography & Breast Care

Many women will develop breast conditions during their lifetimes, some of which will require treatment and others that will not. Mammograms serve a vital role in breast cancer screening. Find information about our Center for Breast and Bone Health services.

Colorectal Cancer Screening

Routine colonoscopies are recommended for those age 50 and over, but those with a close family history of colon cancer or polyps should begin at age 40. A colonoscopy is the best protection against colorectal cancer because it provides screening, testing and prevention.

Community Screenings

Preventative care screenings are important in diagnosing health conditions and cancer early. We support many efforts throughout the year to provide health screenings to our community, including mobile health screenings.

Radiology & Imaging

Diagnostic tools used to diagnose cancer include magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT) scanning, positron emission tomography (PET) exams, nuclear medicine, ultrasound imaging and pathology.

Treatment Services

Advanced Surgical Care

Treating cancer sometimes includes a surgical procedure — such as a biopsy, aspiration or removal of a tumor. Our board-certified surgeons are supported by Magnet® accredited nurses and the latest technology.

Chemotherapy Services

For many patients, chemotherapy is part of their treatment plan. The Hendricks Regional Health Outpatient Infusion Center provides chemotherapy and patient education.

Radiation Oncology Care

We utilize the latest technology techniques and offer IMRT (Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy), SBRT (Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy), SRS/SRT (Stereotactic Radiosurgery/Stereotactic Radiation Therapy), Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT), 3D (Three-Dimensional) computerized treatment planning and HDR (High Dose Rate) Brachytherapy internal radiation treatment for any cancer treatment.

Breast Surgical Oncology Care

The Hendricks Regional Health Breast Center, led by Dr. Monet Bowling, offers a full complement of breast surgery, medical oncology, radiation oncology and plastic and reconstructive surgery.
