Opposition to AI in Mammography; Alzheimer's Disease and Vascular Dysfunction; Clear & Present Danger for The Match; Trends & Innovations in Breast Imaging

Delays in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer have led to the creation of multidisciplinary recommendations for breast cancer care during the COVID-19 pandemic.

More than three-quarters of women prefer a radiologist to be involved with reading their screening studies.

Women who have limited English proficiency have significantly lower rates of undergoing this exam.

Synthetic mammography performed equally as well to digital mammography with less radiation exposure.

Breast imagers could be among the most highly burned out sub-specialists, but there are ways to reduce the work fatigue.

PET/MRI vs. PET/CT; Abdominal CT and COVID-19; Chest MRI vs Chest CT; Expert Interpretations of Endometriosis; and Delayed Breast Cancer Treatments for African American Women

In a one-on-one conversation, Murray Rebner, M.D., past president of the Society of Breast Imaging, discusses how current screening guidelines overlook these women and what that means for radiologists.

Radiation, alongside age and socioeconomic status, is associated with longer diagnosis-to-treatment timelines.

Time of day can affect how well a radiologist can identify and diagnose normal lesions.

Women treated with both surgery and radiotherapy for ductal carcinoma in situ fared best.

Combining DBT and synthetic mammography can mean less follow-up imaging for women with non-dense breasts – but not necessarily for women with dense tissue.

A model that includes mammographic features, lifestyle factors, and genetic-based risk prediction scores can effectively pinpoint which women will likely receive an interval cancer diagnosis.

Researchers endeavor to make thermography a strong supplemental tool to mammography.
