The Jehangir Breast Centre signifies a major advancement in breast care delivery, integrating surgeons and radiologists in real-time consultations to streamline the process, reducing repetitive appointments and ensuring timely diagnosis and treatment for women with breast cancer. Key features include the latest technology, such as 3D tomosynthesis mammography, offering advanced applications like contrast-enhanced mammography, improving diagnostic accuracy by detecting otherwise missed lesions.
For 15 years, the centre has been at the forefront of high-end breast healthcare services in Pune, distinguished by unparalleled expertise.
