Found a lump in your breast?
Most palpable lumps are benign, but only imaging brings certainty. With us, the assessment takes place in one location: breast ultrasound, mammography with tomosynthesis and, if needed, a biopsy in the same building. We discuss the findings with you in detail.
Assessment covered by health insurance
For a palpable lump or other symptoms, all health insurers cover ultrasound and mammography with a referral from your GP, gynaecologist or another doctor.
Screening mammography without referral
We take part in the Austrian breast cancer screening programme. Women aged 45 to 74 can come for a screening mammography every two years with their e-card, even without an invitation. Younger women from 40 and women over 74 register beforehand via the free service line 0800 500 181 or online with the ÖGK.

We are specialists in the early detection, assessment and follow-up care of breast diseases. We help quickly and without fuss, organise treatment in the best place if needed, and accompany you from diagnosis to recovery.
If your findings are unclear, you can get a second opinion from us. If there is any doubt whether a change in your breast is benign, we perform a quick and painless biopsy.
