Marie Elaine, MD, joined the radiology team at Southwestern Vermont Medical Center (SVMC) in September 2026, bringing her expertise and subspecialty interest in breast imaging, women's imaging, and public health.
In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we asked Dr. Elaine about her background, breast health, and importance of regular screening.
“Screening mammography is the only screening test scientifically proven to reduce a woman’s risk of dying from breast cancer,” says Dr. Elaine. “For women at average risk, beginning annual screening mammograms at age 40 provides the greatest benefit from this life-saving test.”
