How is Breast Cancer Treated?

At Edith Sanford Breast Center, we face breast cancer as a team. Our multidisciplinary team will champion you from diagnosis to treatment to survivorship, always putting you first.

Diagnosis

If you have irregularities in your scan, what are your next steps? Your doctor may recommend additional diagnostic methods to take a closer look.

• Mammogram
• Ultrasound
• MRI
• Biopsy

Treatment

You’ll have a team of medical and radiation oncologists, surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, researchers and other breast experts working to find the most effective treatment options for you.

After a diagnosis, your case is brought to our weekly breast tumor board. A room of multidisciplinary experts collaborates on the care plan that’s best for you.

Listen now: Why a tumor board is critical to breast cancer care.

Every plan is unique and can include:

• Clinical trials
• Fertility preservation
• Surgery
• Breast reconstruction
• Chemotherapy
• Radiation
• Integrative care

Survivorship

From the moment you’re diagnosed, you’re a survivor. We want you to thrive during and after treatment. Our team offers support and education beyond cancer and connects you with those who truly understand.

Your care team supports you with:

• Mentor programs
• Retreats and support groups
• Education and mindfulness resources
