Integrated Approach to Breast Cancer Care
Our specialists take an integrated approach to address all aspects of breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. Through our high-risk screening program, we help identify specific genetic mutations, such as BRCA, and provide genetic counseling to manage risk and prevent breast cancer.
Our radiologists have developed novel MRI techniques that assess the chemical content of body tissues to help experts more accurately detect the presence of breast cancer. Our breast cancer surgeons were the first in New York City to use MarginProbe庐, a U.S. Food and Drug Administration鈥揳pproved device, during breast-conserving surgery. Using electromagnetic waves, this device identifies leftover cancerous tissue, helping to avoid the need for additional surgery.
If you opt for breast reconstruction after breast-conserving or breast removal surgery, our experienced plastic surgeons offer the latest reconstructive techniques. Our doctors also work closely with reproductive medicine specialists at 黑料福利社 Langone鈥檚 Fertility Center and 黑料福利社 Langone Reproductive Specialists of New York to offer options such as freezing unfertilized eggs or fertilized embryos, before your treatment begins.
For ongoing support during breast cancer diagnosis and treatment, we provide individual counseling and support groups. To help you recover from surgery, chemotherapy, and other treatments, we offer integrative health services, including massage therapy and acupuncture.
Pioneers in Breast Cancer Research
Our experts are at the forefront of research and the latest techniques to diagnose and treat breast cancer. We are a national leader in clinical trials and led an international clinical trial that found that women who have triple-negative breast cancer鈥攐ne of the most aggressive types of breast cancer鈥攈ad better outcomes if they received a combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy compared with chemotherapy alone.
Our radiation oncologists have also pioneered the use of prone radiation therapy through clinical trials. This treatment allows for more precise targeting of the treatment dose to the breast while avoiding organs such as the heart and lungs.
Combining leading with excellent clinical care, our team delivers the most effective breast cancer treatment.
