HARKER HEIGHTS, TX (June 16, 2025) – In response to growing community demand and a continued commitment to women’s health, Seton Medical Center Harker Heights is proud to announce a significant investment in its Women’s Services department with the addition of a second state-of-the-art mammography machine.
The newly installed MAMMOMAT B.brilliant system represents the latest in breast imaging technology. This advanced mammography unit combines 3D imaging with artificial intelligence (AI) to deliver clearer, more detailed images—enhancing the ability to detect breast cancer at earlier, more treatable stages.
“The goal of all breast imaging is simple: detect cancer as early as possible,” said Patrick Swindle, CEO of Seton Medical Center Harker Heights. “Early detection not only reduces the need for aggressive treatment — it can save lives. When breast cancer is found early, outcomes improve dramatically.”
The MAMMOMAT B.brilliant system is designed to improve patient comfort while delivering high-resolution images with reduced radiation exposure. Its AI-powered capabilities assist radiologists in identifying abnormalities with greater precision, supporting faster and more confident diagnoses.
“Our goal is to provide timely, accurate, and compassionate care to every patient,” Patrick Swindle said. “With the addition of the MAMMOMAT B.brilliant, we’re not only increasing our capacity to serve more women, but also improving the quality of diagnostics through cutting-edge technology.”
This expansion comes as part of Seton Medical Center Harker Heights’ ongoing mission to enhance access to essential healthcare services for the Central Texas community.
