Here's a small video recap of the week!

“See your health in three-dimensions” – that’s the new mantra of our Digital Breast Mammography + Tomosynthesis service line, or commonly referred to as “3D Mammography.” Much like anything in life, the ability to see things from multiple angles allows for a better understanding of any situation, place and scenario; the same can be said about Breast Imaging. Over the years, many improvements have been made for the detection of cancer. Making the switch from Analog to Digital Mammography was a huge technological advancement. Now, with better resolution and the addition of Tomosynthesis (making it 3D), the ability to catch cancers at an early stage has never been better. The science behind 3D Mammography allows the screening exam to capture additional images from more than just the top and side, as previous 2D mammograms allowed. Having a final image in greater detail allows the Radiologist to determine a more accurate and precise diagnosis.

“I’m five foot, eighteen inches tall.” That may be the best way to describe the head-above-the-rest enthusiasm of Joe Burzynski. With the charisma and energy of someone born decades later, Joe makes living at 91-years-old look easy. Retiring after 37 years in the telephone business, Joe and his wife, Eleanor moved to Caseville full-time to enjoy the natural beauty of the Thumb. Joe grew up on east side of Detroit but always remembered the landscape while camping at Sleeper and Port Crescent State Parks, which drew him back to the area after retirement.
