OverviewServiceTechnologiesProfessionals

The Breast Center is the first specialized center for breast pathology in the Vinmec health system in particular and Vietnam in general. The center offers in-depth and "one-stop" services, where patients receive diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up care, with all services and techniques performed right at the Breast Center.

Overview

Breast Center brings together a team of specialized experts and doctors in diagnostic imaging, anatomic pathology, internal Medicine, surgery, radiotherapy, cosmetic surgery, and genetic counseling. All breast cancer cases are discussed in a multidisciplinary tumor board that includes both domestic and international experts to develop the most appropriate treatment plan.

Key strengths include

Leading in applying elastography and superb microvascular imaging in diagnostics.

Vacuum-assisted excision for breast lump removal, eliminating many large tumors over 5 centimeters and multiple breast lumps in a single treatment.

A leading center in performing X-ray-guided stereotactic breast biopsies.

Close coordination with surgeons in placing wire localization markers for small, difficult to locate tumors.

Technologies & Facilitites

Furthermore, Breast Center demonstrates community responsibility by organizing breast cancer early detection screening programs to raise community awareness about proactive breast cancer screening. In 2023, the center organized 8 Pink Day workshops, screening and counseling for 1,713 people, of which 859 were found to have breast pathology (50.2%); 257 had indications for intervention (30%); and 3 early-stage breast cancer cases were detected. Along with this, the Pink Win campaign— “Turn love into action to win breast cancer" —was launched, extended to 5 cities and attracted 3,000 women to come for health education and free screening.
