In this episode of Bedside Matters we start a tick-induced meat allergy that causes allergic reactions and gastrointestinal symptoms after consuming certain meats. Then we move on to the dangers of vaping, highlighting that it poses serious health risks due to toxins like metals and harmful chemicals found in both nicotine and marijuana vapes; a home-use ultrasound device that fits into a bra, which could revolutionize early diagnosis and accessibility and lastly, a synthetic alcohol under development that provides the pleasurable effects of alcohol without causing hangovers or other negative side effects.

Dana Brown, iCAD's president, chairman and CEO, shares how the company is changing the way we think about breast cancer detection. Brown gives us an update on the partnership with Google. Plus, she talks about her time at Susan G. Komen and how cancer detection has changed throughout the years. She also gives some tips for aspiring medtech professionals in this new episode of Let's Talk Medtech.Omar : How are you?Dana: Great. Thanks for having me.Omar: I'm doing well, just a bit sleep-deprived with a newborn at home, but otherwise, all good.Dana: Congratulations.Dana: Thank you. So, Dana, it's been over a year since you took the reins at iCAD. How has the journey been so far?Dana: Better than I expected, honestly. I joined ICAD's board over two years ago, initially thinking it was my dream role. But I saw an opportunity to contribute more directly given my background in cloud technologies and breast health. Jumping in has been fantastic—the team is great, and seeing our solutions in action, not just on paper, has been incredibly rewarding.Omar: That's wonderful to hear. Before we dive into iCAD, let's talk about your time at Susan G. Komen. Can you share about your role there?Dana: Sure, at Susan G. Komen, I served as the chief strategic and operations officer for nearly five years. My focus was enhancing direct patient engagement, ensuring initiatives like helplines, financial aid, and support resources were impactful and accessible. It was about making sure Komen's efforts directly benefited patients throughout their breast cancer journey.Omar: How have your experiences at Komen influenced your approach at iCAD?Dana: Three main takeaways: continuous learning, particularly in management and collaboration; leveraging technology like EMRs and research registries to enhance patient care; and fostering a culture of innovation, crucial for developing effective solutions in breast health.Omar: It sounds like a wealth of knowledge to bring to iCAD. Speaking of which, let's touch on iCAD's use of AI in breast cancer detection. How is AI reshaping mammography?Dana: AI has revolutionized mammography by enhancing accuracy and efficiency. Unlike human eyes, AI processes data at a granular level, making it a reliable second opinion for radiologists. Beyond cancer detection, we're exploring applications like detecting breast arterial calcification, offering a more holistic view of a patient's health.Omar: That's impressive—AI as a precision tool in healthcare. Is it making mammogram results more understandable for patients?Dana: Currently, AI primarily aids clinicians by providing trusted decision support. However, patients are becoming aware of AI's role and its potential to offer them clearer, faster insights into their health—a promising development we're exploring further.Omar: Moving forward, iCAD has partnered with Google Health. What can you tell us about this collaboration?Dana: Our collaboration with Google Health spans two key initiatives: integrating our technology into Google's cloud infrastructure for seamless healthcare operations, and jointly developing advanced AI algorithms. This includes creating an AI-powered second reader for mammograms, aiming to streamline diagnosis and reduce turnaround times, addressing the shortage of radiologists globally.Omar: That's a significant step forward in leveraging technology for healthcare efficiency. While we await regulatory clearances, how do you see AI influencing patient care in the future?Dana: AI is empowering patients with knowledge and enabling more informed healthcare decisions. It's part of a broader trend towards patient empowerment, where individuals actively engage in their health management—a positive shift we're committed to advancing at ICAD.Omar: Your...

Mammograms are known to be the most common form of breast imaging to screen for breast cancer. This form of breast imaging is known to some to be uncomfortable and for some women culturally unacceptable. So, this DiepCJourney podcast interview sparked great interest in the work my guest is doing. Professor Simona Francese, Professor of Forensic and Bioanalytical Mass Spectrometry at Sheffield Hallam University is my guest. Her work and interest in forensic science lead her to a serendipitous discovery published in a paper she authored with others entitled, “Non-invasive screening of breast cancer from fingertip smears – a proof of concept study”. Professor Francese and I met at the London Breast Meeting this year where she opened the conference with her presentation on this topic. I was keen to follow up on an interview with her. This interview along with slides she shares on the study can be viewed on the DiepCFoundation channel. Research requires funding. As one who has had numerous mammograms, I am taking it upon myself to share information to reach out to Professor Francese for anyone interested in contacting her to bring financing to this project. It is a favor I am happy to do for her and to the breast cancer community I serve.

“I work with an amazing group of [ultrasound technologist] who go above and beyond on a daily basis to make sure each of their patients and their families are cared for, loved, comforted and well informed,” said Martini Tolley, an ultrasound technologist at the Stefanie Spielman Comprehensive Breast Center. In this episode, Tolley explains the difference between a mammogram and an ultrasound, the role of each in diagnosing and treating breast cancer, and how the ultrasound procedure works. “We're a very busy department and we do 45 to 55 ultrasounds every day,” Tolley said. “And, because we have seven ultrasound technologists, we never have to rush. We take the amount of time needed with patients.” Tolley, who has worked at the breast center for 11 years, and as an ultrasound technologist for 24 years, talked about how she connects with the women (and even some men) she sees every day. “Some of the patients who come into the building are scared to even get out of the car. There can be a lot of anxiety and fear, for multiple reasons. Some patients may have already had a [breast cancer] diagnosis and are afraid of what's next, or they are coming to the screening and are afraid it might not go well.”

Today's Extraordinary Women Radio interview is with Jessica Sidener, the founder of Night Out with “The Girls,” an organization that educates women about early breast cancer detection, by encouraging them to take their health into their "own hands." Night Out with “The Girls” meets women right where they tend to be most comfortable--with their girlfriends, having fun, in a relaxed environment...where awkward questions about early breast cancer detection and how to do self-breast exams are embraced, encouraged and celebrated. By including a breast cancer survivor and a healthcare provider in the fun, these tough, but “need-to-know topics” are tackled in a manner that exudes: comfort, connection conversation. Jessica shares her story about how Life “giving her lemons” unexpectedly transformed her - from a young widow to breast cancer survivor to visionary entrepreneur - and intensified her desire to help others navigate loss. This interview is inspirational and provides all of us as women some important tips on our own self-care. "Never discount the gut and the heart when it comes to our health. Pay attention to your intuition. Then take action." ~Jessica Sidener To learn more about Night Out with the Girls, follow them on Facebook or visit the web site.

A mammogram is an essential annual screening tool to detect early warning signs of breast cancer. Dr. Gary Levine discusses the benefits of Digital Tomosynthesis – 3D mammography technology – and its role in improving cancer detection and increasing survival rates.

Today we talk about the unique challenges associated with detecting cancer in women with radiographically dense breasts and a new technology that aims to help improve cancer detection rates in patients with dense breast tissue. It's important to recognize that the term "dense breast" doesn't refer to how a breast feels - it simply means that the internal structure is developed in such a way that it obscures the image of potential growths in X-ray imaging. A new technology will allow doctors to see through the dense internal structures and be better able to detect any signs of cancer. It is called the Sofia automated breast ultrasound tomography system and we talk with its inventor about the technology and the issue of dense breast tissue.
