This is a great article for the #lobular breast cancer community, summarizing the latest discussions and research from #SABCS23. I am glad that #ILC is getting more attention at these important national/international meetings. medpagetoday.com/clinical-chall…

New resource where I discuss some of the imaging challenges of #lobular breast cancer. A great pathology review and a free #ILC handbook are also available. Thanks to GE HealthCare and team for making this possible. hospitalhealthcare.com/sponsored/ge-h…

Thanks JACR for publishing my latest letter on supplemental #breastcancer screening in #densebreasts. This topic is gaining national attention, and many are looking for clear guidelines. My Density Matters DenseBreast-Info.org American College of Radiology sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Very interesting article on #lobular breast cancer, suggesting that many radiologists are not confident with #ILC detection on #mammography, especially in #densebreasts, and that supplemental screening is desired. #radiology Society of Breast Imaging Lobular Breast Cancer Alliance academic.oup.com/jbi/advance-ar…

TY Sara Israelsen-Hartley, MPP for this article abt #breastdensity and the state of affairs in NC. Come on NC, as a state with leading universities and high tech companies, you can do better. Shoutouts to Matt Covington, MD AreYouDense Inc. #mydensitymatters theassemblync.com/health/breast-…

Appreciate The Breast Cancer Research Foundation and Adrian Lee for this podcast on #lobular #breastcancer. I liked the succinct but spot on review of #ILC, and mentions of the International ILC Symposium (fantastic this year), imaging of ILC, and the work of Lobular Breast Cancer Alliance. bcrf.org/2024-podcast-d…

Dear #nucmed colleagues: I'm sending out a recommendation for Phillip Kuo, MD PhD, as SNMMI Director-at-Large. Phil has been my mentor, collaborator, and good friend for many years. I know him very well. Phil, as Director-at-Large, would be a great asset to our community.

How strong is the #radiology job market? According to this Doximity poll, radiology may currently have the #1 physician job market. The long-term impact of #AI and other factors is unknown. However, I agree "there is totally overwhelming demand now". doximity.com/articles/f203c…

#Densebreast screening is an important topic, and access to supplemental screening technologies can vary by where one lives. I was recently interviewed for this article that discusses #breastcancer #screening options in #Utah. newspub.live/west/utah/utah…

"A previous Deloitte analysis of claims data found that women pay $15.4 billion more in out-of-pocket costs per year than men." The #FindItEarlyAct would reduce out of pocket costs for #densebreast screening for #breastcancer. Rosa DeLauro Katie Couric fiercehealthcare.com/finance/deloit…

#Theranostics is getting a lot of attention now, which is great, but also like "finally!" for those many of us in #nucmed and #radiology who saw this potential years ago. I never guessed, however, that I'd see theranostics ads on TV or social media. cnbc.com/2024/09/16/rad…
