Center of Excellence

MACON, GA (Monday, December 8, 2014) – Breast Care Center, Atrium Health Navicent (BCCNH) has been designated a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence by the American College of Radiology (ACR).

By awarding facilities the status of a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence, the ACR recognizes breast imaging centers that have earned accreditation in mammography, stereotactic breast biopsy and breast ultrasound, including ultrasound-guided breast biopsy.

“At Atrium Health Navicent, we are committed to providing our patients with the highest quality services. The physicians and clinicians at our breast care center are dedicated to excellence, and the recognition from the American College of Radiology underscores that fact,” said Dr. Fady Wanna, Chief Medical Officer and Chief Clinical Officer for Atrium Health Navicent.

Peer-review evaluations, conducted in each breast imaging modality by board-certified physicians and medical physicists who are experts in the field, have determined that BCCNH has achieved high practice standards in image quality, personnel qualifications, facility equipment, quality control procedures and quality assurance programs.

“Receiving this accreditation is wonderful news for Breast Care Center, Atrium Health Navicent and the patients that we serve. Being known as a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence lets our current and prospective patients know that we are taking only the highest quality diagnostic images when they seek treatment at our breast care center,” said Jill Hancock, RN, Manager of BCCNH.

The ACR is a national professional organization serving more than 36,000 diagnostic/interventional radiologists, radiation oncologists, nuclear medicine physicians, and medical physicists with programs focusing on the practice of medical imaging and radiation oncology and the delivery of comprehensive health care services.
