A simple breast check-up can be a pain; treatment, an ordeal.
Conventional hospital check-ups require the patient to bounce around from specialist, to test, to another specialist, and yet another test, all in different parts of the hospital. This takes an awful lot of time, energy - and patience.
The UST Hospital shortens this process with its new Breast Care Center at the Benavides Cancer Institute. It provides multi-disciplinary care for breast diseases, diagnosis and treatment - practically everything in one area.

From mammography to advanced ultrasound detection and biopsies, to the latest treatment modalities, the UST Hospital's Breast Care Center is organized to deliver the highest possible standard of care. |

The ALLEGRETTO WAVE system is the first new laser to receive approval in the United States since 1999.
It is the fastest LASIK system in the United States today, using Perfect Pulse Technology to safely and accurately control every single laser pulse from start to finish.
The ALLEGRETTO's diagnostic partner is the ALLEGRO OCULYZER. The Allegro Oculyzer is the latest high-precision tool providing a new level of diagnostic information about the anterior eye chamber to aid in the decision-making process for customized laser vision correction.
The Oculyzer provides the ophthalmologist the corneal topography measurement and analysis, using pentacam technology. The pentacam takes images of the eye from the front of the cornea to the back of the lens. |
