Profile of the breast center: one year's experience.
The Grant Regional Breast Center (GRBC) has proven to be an effective means to offer radiologic breast exam. Not only has the service been very well received by patients but it has also shown a profit for the institution. The numbers are too small to show that there has been an increase in early screening. The numbers do suggest, however, that there has been an increased access to screening. Hopefully, this increased access and awareness will lead to increased early detection and increased long-term survival.
