We’ve also been designated a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence by the American College of Radiology (ACR), awarded only to those facilities that have earned accreditation in mammography, breast MRI, stereotactic breast biopsy and breast ultrasound (including ultrasound-guided breast biopsy). It recognizes our commitment to giving women access to the very best of these essential services.

Cancer genetic risk assessment

If you have a family history of cancer, Advocate Condell offers an on-site cancer genetics program, including genetic testing and cancer risk assessments to address any concerns. Specialized pathology testing can identify specific genes related to breast, colon, ovarian and other cancers with a hereditary link. Our board-certified genetic counselors will walk through the results with you, discuss next steps and refer you to a specialist, if needed.

• 64-Slice CT Scanner: This lightning-fast scanner provides dramatic image detail and resolution that allows our physicians even greater accuracy in detecting early cancers, or those who may be at risk.
• Minimally Invasive Robotic Surgery: The sophisticated da Vinci® Robotic Surgical System allows our surgeons to operate with just a few tiny incisions, plus 3D-high-definition vision and enhanced precision and control.
• Innovative Radiation Therapy: Advocate Condell's newly renovated Radiation Oncology Center features some of the most comprehensive radiation therapy options available in Lake County, including RapidArc radiotherapy, image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT), intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and high-dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy. This technology allows us to target tumors with unmatched precision, while minimizing damage to healthy tissue and side effects.

Outpatient infusion center

If your doctor recommends chemotherapy as part of your treatment plan, our Infusion Center offers a convenient and comfortable experience, right inside the hospital. You can relax during treatments while being tended to by oncology certified nurses to provide the specialized care you need.

The Center offers a full range of IV therapies, antibiotics, blood transfusion and injection services. We provide both proven and newer medications like intraperitoneal chemotherapy for ovarian cancer, which directly targets cancer cells in the abdomen while reducing drug exposure to healthy tissues.

• Same-day mammograms, same-day results: With your busy life, it’s not always easy to make your health a priority. That’s why we can often see you the same day you schedule your appointment. We also provide same-day results to reduce wait anxiety or quickly order any follow-up tests, if needed. Schedule your mammogram today.
• Better detection for women with breast implants: Because implants can interfere with imaging breast tissue, we offer a screening-with-implants mammography. This special technique takes several detailed pictures to maximize visualization of breast tissue.
• Stereotactic breast biopsy: Stereotactic biopsy uses a special computerized machine to pinpoint the any suspicious areas following a mammography. The procedure removes a small tissue sample through a hollow needle passed through the skin, which your pathologist will assess to determine if the area is benign or cancerous. We also offer advanced breast MRI, sentinel lymph node biopsy, ultrasound core biopsy and more to confirm a diagnosis.
• Breast health navigator: We understand that a breast concern can be a time of uncertainty and anxiety. At Advocate Condell, our certified breast health navigators help ease any extra burden on you by helping coordinate all care, connecting you to valuable resources and providing emotional support every step of the way.
