Providence St. Vincent radiologist talks contrast enhanced mammography

April 2026

Providence St. Vincent Medical Center began offering contrast enhancement mammography in February, and just last week, Karen Oh, M.D., radiologist, appeared on KATU's "AM Northwest" to explain the test and who should consider getting it.
