Prevention & Screening

At the UMC TLC2 Foundation Cancer Center, cancer care is redefined with cutting-edge screening programs, advanced prevention strategies, and technology-driven treatments.

Breast Imaging Center

Getting a mammogram is a simple, safe, and essential step in protecting your health. With advanced technology and a compassionate team dedicated to your comfort, we provide screenings in a calm, supportive environment. Whether it’s your first mammogram or part of your regular care, early detection through mammography can make all the difference. Schedule your appointment today and take a proactive step toward peace of mind.

LDCT Screening

Utilizing low‑dose CT scans, lung cancer screening mirrors the precision of mammograms or colonoscopies, detecting early-stage disease when it’s most treatable. We pair this with the B.E.S.S.T. smoking‑cessation program to empower patients to quit, enhancing outcomes through a holistic approach to care.

Colon Screening

Following national guidelines, we recommend colon cancer screenings starting at age 45 or earlier for high-risk individuals. Consider stool-based tests (FIT, FOBT, DNA) or minimally invasive colonoscopies, allowing for early polyp removal and prevention.

Genetic Testing

The comprehensive genetics program offers testing for breast, ovarian, colon, prostate, pancreatic, and other cancers. Paired with personalized counseling, it helps determine risk and guide screening strategies.

Bexa Breast Exam

Delivered in partnership with TTUHSC’s Laura W. Bush Institute for Women’s Health, Bexa™ Breast Exams offer a painless, non‑radiative option for early breast cancer detection. Available across 24 rural counties, this FDA‑cleared technology gives results in just 48 hours—no squeezing, no waiting rooms, and no radiation.

Together, we’re empowering communities with hope—detecting cancer earlier, preventing it wherever possible, and expanding access to care across the region.
