About Dr Herman Fourie

Dr. Herman Fourie has been dedicated to cancer care since graduating with an MBChB from the University of Pretoria in 1994. After completing his internship in Pretoria, he gained oncology experience at Maidstone Hospital Oncology Center in the UK, now known as The Kent Oncology Centre. Following his postgraduate training in the UK, Dr. Fourie returned to South Africa to specialize in Radiology at the University of Pretoria, completing his studies in 2006.

In 2007, Dr. Fourie took ownership of the Radiological Practice at Netcare Femina Hospital, where he continued his focus on cancer care, specializing in breast cancer screening. As part of a multidisciplinary team, he also addresses general female health conditions. In 2013, Dr. Fourie’s practice became the first in Pretoria to install the Hologic 3D Mammography unit, a game-changer that has enabled the detection of breast cancers at smaller sizes and earlier stages. As Dr. Fourie often emphasizes, “Early detection saves lives.”

Certainty with Confidence

This 3D mammography test uses revolutionary state of the art technology to view the inside of the breast layer by layer in 1mm-thin images.

Thorough with Diligence

Breast Tomosynthesis has been shown to find 30% more breast cancers because of earlier detection when compared with standard 2D mammography.

Quality without Compromise

With 3 practices across South Africa, we are on a mission to change the face of breast care in Pretoria.

Make your body the #1 PRIORITY

Cutting-edge 3D imaging technology called “Breast tomosynthesis”, revolutionizes the way mammograms are conducted. During a brief 8-second scan, this advanced technique captures 11 distinct images of the stationary breast from various angles, using gentle compression.

The tomosynthesis process culminates in the reconstruction of these individual images into high-resolution 1mm slices, displayed either as separate images or a dynamic video. For example, a 5cm compressed breast tomosynthesis study yields 50 reconstructed slices, while a 7cm study produces 70 slices.

By resolving tissue overlap challenges that often lead to missed breast cancers in traditional 2D mammography exams, tomosynthesis significantly enhances radiologists’ ability to detect and diagnose breast cancer with greater accuracy. Make your health a top priority and experience the benefits of this innovative imaging technology.

Happy Client Stories

This was my first Mammogram, and I heard so many stories about how painful this would be. I thought it would experience discomfort during or after the Mammogram, but I was impressed — not at all! I was talked through the examination and was relaxed and felt safe because the Radiographer knew what she was doing.

I had my first Mammogram this week at the age of 50y. I could see that the practice was busy, and while dealing with that kind of burden, they still took the time to make me feel like I was the most important patient there that day; it was very special. Thanks to all of you.
