The Project Renewal ScanVan is a mobile mammography unit with a comfortable three room layout. Your visit will include a mammography performed by a certified X-ray technician, a Clinical Breast Exam, and personalized instruction on how to perform Breast Self Examination. Your mammography films will be evaluated by a Board Certified Radiologist and both you and your provider will have results within 10 business days.

 


(1) This is the first room you will visit on the Mammography Van. Here, staff from the Women’s Outreach Network will assist you in completing your registration paperwork. Please remember to please bring your insurance card with you, if you have one.

 

 

(2) This is the second room where the mammogram takes place. Here a certified X-ray Technician will take x-rays of your breasts. Be sure not to wear any deodorant, lotion, powder, oil, or perfume on this day as it may interfere with your pictures. Also, for your convenience, we suggest you wear a two piece outfit.

 

 

 

 

(3) In the final stage of your visit, you will be instructed on how to perform Breast Self Exams. You will also receive a Clinical Breast Exam from trained personnel. From start to end, your visit in the van will only last about half an hour.
