Take the Time

Mobile Mammography

Take the Time is Hartford Hospital’s digital mobile mammography program, bringing convenient, accessible screenings to locations across Connecticut.  

Take the Time Mobile Mammography makes it easier for women to have screening mammograms which is the best tool for identifying breast cancer in its earliest, most treatable stages.  Take the Time mobile mammography unit is operated by Hartford Hospital’s comprehensive breast program and reaches women who might otherwise not have access to mammography services.  Each mammogram screening takes 15 minutes and is read by a board-certified Hartford Hospital radiologist.  Results will be sent in the mail 2-4 weeks after the mammogram screening is completed.
