AdventHealth Murray, located in Chatsworth, Georgia, has received the designation of a Comprehensive Breast Imaging Center from the American College of Radiology (ACR). This recognition highlights the facility’s commitment to providing high-quality breast imaging services, essential for the early detection of breast cancer.
Innovative Diagnostic Tools Introduced
This year, AdventHealth Murray has expanded its services by introducing 3D mammography and genetic testing.

The ACR designation is awarded to breast imaging centers that meet rigorous standards in various areas, including mammography, stereotactic breast biopsy, and breast ultrasound. The evaluation process involves peer reviews conducted by board-certified physicians and medical physicists who are experts in the field. They assess factors such as image quality, personnel qualifications, facility equipment, quality control procedures, and quality assurance programs.
