The Lynne Cohen Breast Cancer Preventive Care Program at NYU Cancer
Institute
In this program, we offer each woman the opportunity to have her
individual risk profile for breast cancer evaluated. Every woman
will have access to genetic counseling and the educational materials
to decide whether to have genetic testing if needed. Additionally,
her visit will include a physical examination by a breast medical
oncologist. A gynecologic oncologist and screening radiology are
also available on site. We offer mammogram, ultrasound and breast
MRI as indicated.
