The vehicle has been newly outfitted with a state-of-the-art 3D imaging machine that produces clearer, more detailed scans. Unlike traditional two-dimensional mammography, the new system captures multiple images of the breast from different angles, then reconstructs them into a three-dimensional view. This allows technologists to examine tissue in thin slices, similar to turning the pages of a book.

The result is earlier detection of potential concerns, greater accuracy for women with dense breast tissue, fewer false positives, and fewer retakes.

FREDERICKSBURG, Va. — The Fredericksburg Theatre Ensemble’s fall production of RENT carries special meaning this year as the company pays tribute to longtime performer and friend, Chris Hlusko, who died shortly before the show opened.

Hlusko’s first appearance with the Ensemble came in 2012 with The Eight: Reindeer Monologues. Over the years, he left his mark on stage and backstage, contributing to productions including I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change, The Rocky Horror Show, and Dangerous Liaisons, where his passion for costumes shone. Most recently, he appeared in Stage Door Productions’ King Lear. RENT was to be his return to the FTE stage.
