New York City, New York Sep 7, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - A fellowship-trained surgical oncologist, Dr. Abbott specializes in the care and treatment of women with breast cancer. She joins other talented breast imagers as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Diagnostic Imaging at Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Her areas of treatment focus include digital mammography, 3D mammography, breast ultrasound, breast MRI, image-guided breast biopsy, and image-guided needle localization.
The Department of Diagnostic Imaging at Fox Chase Cancer Center plays a vital role in finding, monitoring, and treating cancer and various non-cancerous conditions. The diagnostic imaging team includes board-certified radiologists, nurses, and technologists who expertly and compassionately guide patients through the entire imaging process. If a problem is detected, the multidisciplinary medical team will determine the best course of treatment.
A 2010 graduate of Rutgers New Jersey Medical School, Dr. Abbott went on to perform his internship and residency in surgery at SUNY Downstate Medical Center, Brooklyn in 2011 and 2013, respectively. He then completed an additional residency in diagnostic radiology at Pennsylvania Hospital in 2017, followed by a fellowship in breast imaging at New York University Medical Center in 2018.
Using imaging technology to aid in cancer diagnosis, staging, and guidance of treatment, the doctor is board-certified in diagnostic radiology by the American Board of Radiology (ABR).

Continuously advancing her efforts, Dr. Abbott is an active member of the American Medical Association, the Radiological Society of North America, the American College of Radiology, and the Society of Breast Imaging.
Surgical oncology is the branch of surgery applied to oncology. It focuses on the surgical management of tumors, especially cancerous tumors. A surgical oncologist removes the tumor and nearby tissue during surgery. He or she also performs certain types of biopsies to help diagnose cancer.
