The Guthrie Lourdes Mobile Mammography Van offers convenient access to breast cancer screening through 3D mammography. The van will be available in the parking lot for cancer screenings, and appointments can be made by calling 607-798-5723.

Women do not need to be Lourdes patients to utilize this service, and the results can be sent to any provider of their choice. Both insured and uninsured women are welcome, and no referral is required for the screening.

To qualify for a mammogram in the van, individuals must meet the following criteria: be at least 40 years old, have no history of breast surgery (or have had a biopsy more than one year ago), and have no current breast problems or symptoms that require further evaluation.

For those interested in low or no-cost screenings, they can contact the Cancer Services Program at 607-758-5523. The mobile mammography van is located at 169 Riverside Drive, Binghamton, NY 13905, and more information can be found at guthrie.org/lourdesmammogram.
