Podcasts about abdominal imaging

Are you about to get a mammogram and now worried about the conflicting information? Then tune into this episode with radiologist Dr. Robyn Roth who gives us her side of the story on mammograms and alternatives to breast screening.  You'll either love this episode or hate it, but I like to present both sides of the story. Over the last year I have had numerous guests who warned us of the dangers of mammograms. I had several of you reach out to me wanting me to share the other perspectives out there. So I gathered all the arguments that our guests have talked about in other episodes and presented them at Dr. Robyn to hear her rebuttal. We covered: The fears around mammograms Do mammograms really save lives? Are we over diagnosing and overtreating women? What is the damage that is done on a woman given a false diagnosis? What percentage of DCIS goes on to become an aggressive cancer from her experience? If mammograms don't pick up calcifications on dense breasts, why are we even doing them? What the man who invented mammograms says is the gold standard of breast screening Alternatives to mammograms and how reliable are they? If mammography is not recommended to pregnant women because of the risk of radiation on the fetus, then why are we all getting mammograms? Is a woman really a survivor if she dies at 6 years past her diagnosis instead of the time bias of 5?   Dr. Robyn Roth is an Ivy-league trained board-certified radiologist specializing in Breast and Abdominal Imaging, with over 15 years of clinical experience. She is better known as @TheBoobieDocs, her popular social media platform where she discusses breast cancer and breast health in an educational and fun way. She is a breast cancer specialist who educates, advocates and empowers about the importance of early breast cancer detection and understanding your risk factors. Dr. Roth hosts a podcast, “The Girlfriend's Guide to Breast Cancer, Breast Health, & Beyond” to help those navigating a breast cancer diagnosis.   RESOURCES https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21249649/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7681269/ Contact Dr. Robyn Roth: Instagram @theboobiedocs https://www.instagram.com/theboobiedocs Podcast, the girlfriends guide to breast cancer https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-boobie-docs-the-girlfriends-guide-to-breast/id1586884287  Website: https://theboobiedocs.com Email: theboobiedocs@gmail.com Instagram @theboobiedocs   Give thanks to our sponsors: Qualia senolytics and brain supplements. 15% off with code ZORA here.

Classifying and categorizing ovarian masses can feel like a daunting task for radiology trainees. In this episode Dr. Alan Goldstein will discuss with us his approach to these lesions to help simplify the process. First, a few mimics and pitfalls will be presented. Then Dr. Goldstein will break down the three basic types of ovarian tumors with an emphasis on imaging features: 1. First, make sure the mass is truly ovarian in origin (A) Appendiceal mucocele, peritoneal inclusion cyst, hydrosalpinx, subserosal fibroid, endometrioma, metastasis 2. Then break it down (A) Epithelial tumors (cystic with solid components) - Benign - Borderline - Malignant (B) Sex cord stromal tumors (solid with cystic components) - Fibroma - Other stuff (C) Germ cells tumors (bizarre masses in young patients) - Dermoid cyst - Other stuff Hosts: Christopher Cerniglia, DO, ME, FAOCR.

Giving men as much information as possible to guide them in their decision-making is vital. So, today, it's our pleasure to welcome Dr. Rajan Gupta, a radiologist from Duke University, to talk about Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the prostate. Currently, MRI is being used more and more in various clinical scenarios for the prostate. Be sure to listen in today to find out more! Dr. Gupta is the first radiologist to be interviewed on this podcast! He is Division Chief of Abdominal Imaging at Duke University, and he is Director of Imaging for the newly-created Duke Cancer Institute Center for Prostate and Urologic Cancers. Dr. Gupta has been a prolific and productive researcher in the area of genitourinary oncology, and he is a nationally recognized expert in prostate MRI. We are very fortunate to have Dr. Gupta with us on the show today, so stay tuned to find out all you need to know about MRI of the prostate. Disclaimer: The Prostate Health Podcast is for informational purposes only. Nothing in this podcast should be construed as medical advice. By listening to the podcast, no physician-patient relationship has been formed. For more information and counseling, you must contact your personal physician or urologist with questions about your unique situation.  Show highlights: What MRI is, and how it works. MRI requires no radiation. MRI was used on the prostate first in the early 1980s, but it only took off when the technology improved in the last ten to fifteen years. Dr. Gupta explains what has led to MRI taking off in the past ten to fifteen years. Dr. Gupta describes some of the different scenarios where a prostate MRI could be useful. Using MRI to help guide targeted or fusion biopsies. The goal of MRI in various scenarios. Dr. Gupta answers a question that is frequently asked by men who have not had a prior prostate biopsy. Whether or not patients should have a biopsy before getting imaging. In Europe, there are movements geared to promote MRI as a means by which patients with elevated PSAs can get imaging first, in favor of targeted biopsies rather than traditional biopsies. What the advocates for prostate cancer patients need to be thinking about, regarding insurance companies and treatment decisions. What to expect when preparing for an MRI.

In conversation with Dr. Harshna Vadvala at Coffee Chats with Shah ------------------------------------------------------------------ Dr. Harshna Vadvala is Assistant Professor at Johns Hopkins Hospital in the Body Imaging Division of the Radiology Department, Baltimore. She has completed fellowship training in Abdominal Imaging & Interventional Radiology and Cardiovascular Imaging from Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School in Boston. Dr. Vadvala serves CT, MR, US and Biopsy sections while fulfilling her goals of education and research.

Summary: 1. Staging - know where to look (based on primary site but also pathology) 2. Restaging - know what to expect (based on type of treatment - XRT, chemo, immunotherapy) 3. Big picture - same, better, worse; critical lesions that may require treatment (impending fractures, spinal cord involvement) 4. Chose words carefully - careful about using “progression” unless you are going to calculate that this meets RECIST criteria - consider using “increased tumor burden” instead Host: Christopher Cerniglia, DO, ME, FAOCR.
