“That's what metastatic breast cancer looks like now—patients can live an extended period of time. And sometimes I think we forget to cheer for stable disease. I tell patients they can live with weeds in their garden; they just can't let the weeds take over their garden. And today we don't have a cure. We live in a rapidly changing time in oncology, and so there's just so much hope right now that we can offer patients,” ONS member Kristi Orbaugh, RN, MSN, RNP, AOCN®, nurse practitioner at Community Hospital North Cancer Center in Indianapolis, IN, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about patient communication in the metastatic breast cancer setting.

Highlights From This Episode “I think the most important and vital piece of having those conversations is making sure that we know—really know—that patient, because if we know them, that helps guide what they're needing right then, helps guide our verbiage, helps guide disciplines that we bring in.” TS 2:04 “What do they want to hear? I've been in practice a really, really long time, and I've had the entire spectrum. I've had patients say, ‘Tell me every single detail.' I mean, they want pictures. They want graphs. They want me to draw things. I've even had patients that want me to take markers and mark their body parts. … And then I've had patients that say, ‘I don't want to know anything. I trust my healthcare team. I'm going to proceed with treatment, but I really don't want to know anything.'” TS 3:40 “Remember to make things as simple as possible until we really know what the patient knows. We don't send our children to school and start them out in eighth grade; we send them to kindergarten for a reason. So we get basic information, and then we build on that. And I think we need to remember that when we're doing our patient education, whether it's regarding new chemotherapy or treatment plans or palliative care, we've got to remember to start simple. And maybe we build on that very quickly, or maybe it takes a bit more time. Number one—I actually think it helps with adherence because patients understand what we're asking of them and why we're asking that of them.” TS 12:00 “I think what's really kind of key to keep in mind is that patients are going to seek information. And so, we need to make sure that we're giving them really good, reliable, durable information because if we are not giving them good websites, if we're not giving them good written material, if we're not giving them good verbal information and education, they're going to contact ‘Dr. Google.' Dr. Google is good for a lot of things, but sometimes patients can go down a rabbit hole that's not appropriate or not accurate. That's not a good place for them to be.” TS 14:35 “If we find biomarkers that we call actionable, meaning that we find this mutation and we have a drug that blocks that mutation, that is what is going to guide and drive our treatment. Sometimes that can take a bit of time, right? And if we have a patient and they just find out they have metastatic disease, will they want treatment yesterday. And I understand that. … But frequently there is a very important period of waiting and allowing us to learn that enemy better by reviewing genomic testing, looking at that next-generation sequencing, looking at any positive biomarkers in breast cancer. They may have started out ER/PR positive. Are they still ER/PR positive?” TS 23:46 “I think when we're talking about goals of care, first of all, we need to make sure that the patient understands, when we're talking about metastatic disease today…, this is not a disease that we can cure, but hopefully it's a disease that we can manage for years to come. With that in mind, what's important to that patient? What is important to that patient in terms of life goals? What's important to that patient in terms of toxicities that they will allow and toxicities that they won't allow? TS 29:22 “If don't have a lot of medical knowledge, taking a pill seems less important than getting an IV. It seems like a bigger deal if I would miss getting my IV therapy. ‘Oh, whoops, I forgot to take a pill. Maybe it's not such a big, important piece of my treatment.' So education—when we set that patient down, helping them understand how this drug works, mechanism of action in a simple term, why it's important to take it as scheduled, why it's important to take it with food or without food, why it's important to take it consistently.” TS 34:41

“You can give someone a survivorship care plan, but just giving them doesn't mean that it's going to happen. Maybe there's no information about family history. Or maybe there's information and there's quite a bit of family history, but there's nothing that says, ‘Oh, they were ever had genetic testing,' or ‘Oh, they were ever referred.' So the intent is so good because it's to really take that time out when they're through with active treatment and, you know, try to help give the patient some guidance as to what to expect down the line,” Suzanne Mahon, DNS, RN, AOCN®, AGN-BC, FAAN, professor emeritus at Saint Louis University in Missouri, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about breast cancer survivorship.   Music Credit: “Fireflies and Stardust” by Kevin MacLeod  Licensed under Creative Commons by Attribution 3.0   Earn 0.75 contact hours of nursing continuing professional development (NCPD) by listening to the full recording and completing an evaluation at courses.ons.org by March 14, 2027. The planners and faculty for this episode have no relevant financial relationships with ineligible companies to disclose.

After about five years, a lot of times people are ready to say, ‘Okay, annually is okay.' And eventually they may let that drop off. But it also depends on did they have a mastectomy? Did they have breast conserving surgery? And then if they had reconstruction with an implant, how often do they see the plastic surgeon? Because they need to check integrity of the implant. So those schedules are really individualized.” TS 13:24  “When you think about long-term effects, I think you need to kind of think about that survivors can have both acute and long-term chronic effects. And a lot of that depends on the specifics of the treatment they had. I think as oncology nurses, we're used to, ‘We give you this chemotherapy or this agent, and these are the side effects.'” TS 15:36  “The diet issues are huge. And I think we are slow to refer to the dietician, you know, you can get them a couple of consults and because you're saying to them, ‘This is really important. We need you to lose weight or we need you to eat more of this.' Ideally, fruits and vegetables are going to be about half of your plate. And what's the difference between a whole grain and not, less processed foods, making sure that they're getting enough protein. And then once again, really kind of making sure that they're not taking a lot of supplements and extra stuff because we don't really understand all that fully and it could be harmful.” TS 34:53  “Breast cancer is a long, long journey, and I think you should never underestimate the real difference that nurses can make. I think they can ask those tough questions. And I think ask the questions that are important to patients that patients may be reluctant to ask. I think giving patients permission to talk about those less-talked-about symptoms and acknowledge that those symptoms are real and that there are some strategies to mitigate those symptoms.” TS 42:28   

“This is what totally drives the treatment decisions, and that's why having that pathology report when the nurse is educating the patient is so important, because you can say, well, you have this kind of breast cancer, and this kind of breast cancer is generally treated this way,” Suzanne Mahon, DNS, RN, AOCN®, AGN-BC, FAAN, professor emeritus at Saint Louis University in Missouri, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about what oncology nurses need to know about breast cancer treatment.  Music Credit: “Fireflies and Stardust” by Kevin MacLeod  Licensed under Creative Commons by Attribution 3.0   Earn 1.0 contact hours (including 15 minutes of pharmacotherapeutic content) of nursing continuing professional development (NCPD) by listening to the full recording and completing an evaluation at courses.ons.org by February 14, 2027. The planners and faculty for this episode have no relevant financial relationships with ineligible companies to disclose.

All women are going to have, and today when you use the word women, individuals assigned female at birth, they are the vast majority of individuals being treated for breast cancer, but for individuals assigned male at birth, there's not near as much research, but generally their treatment is very similar. So that's something to kind of keep in the back of your mind.” TS 2:39  “This is very confusing for patients because they're like, ‘Well, my friend at church had this and why am I getting this and why are they getting something different?' And that is because of the pathology report. So taking that time to explain that with a pathology, I think is really important.” TS 8:31  “When they see the breast surgeon, all individuals are going to have some kind of axillary evaluation.  Now, hopefully it's going to be a sentinel lymph node. So they're going to, at the time of surgery, put a tracer and, you know, they're going to take out maybe one, two, three lymph nodes and hopefully, you know, there is not a lot of disease there. And if that's the case, they're kind of done with that. So the sentinel lymph node evaluation, it's really more to stage and provide that information, but it kind of sets the stage a lot of times for the other treatments selections. And I think people need to realize that this is important. This is a very important procedure.” TS 15:31  “Years ago, when women had a breast mass, they went to the OR and it was biopsied in a frozen section and if it was positive, they had a mastectomy. So women would wake up and they'd be feeling their chest because they're like, ‘What happened here?' And that is not great care. It doesn't give that woman any autonomy, but it was the best that could be done at that point. Now, with the diagnostic where we can do a needle biopsy, they can kind of stop and take a timeout and we can kind of clinically stage that.” TS 17:04  “For women that really desire breast-conserving therapy, they can anticipate that postoperatively at some point, they're going to have treatment to the entire breast, we typically call whole breast radiation, and then they may have a boost. Now, in many, many probably cases, that's going to be over five to six weeks, Monday through Friday. So the treatment itself doesn't take but a couple of minutes, but you have to get to the facility. And even though we streamline check-in processes and whatnot, you have to get undressed, you have to get positioned on the table. So it is a commitment, and it can be disruptive.” TS 24:49  “The hormone-blocking agents are going to be the cornerstone of all those treatments for anyone who has hormone receptor–positive breast cancer. So they are going to take these agents and as you said, they're probably going to take them for 5–10 years. It's quite the journey.” TS 32:33   “I think you need to be mindful that if someone has had germline testing and they've tested positive, they are not only worried about themselves, and they are worried about the rest of their family. That is a big deal. And even though I'll hear mothers say, ‘I feel so guilty, now my daughter has this,' now, I've never heard a daughter come and say, ‘Gosh, I wish my mom hadn't had me because of this.' There's a lot of feeling and emotion that goes on with that, and realize that those individuals are probably going to have fairly complicated management that goes over and above their breast cancer.” TS 41:50 

“We know that some women are going to get called back. And it's just because usually they can't see something clearly enough. And so in most cases, those women are going to get cleared with one or two images, and they're going to say, ‘Oh, we compress that better, we checked it with an ultrasound, we're fine.' That woman can go ahead and go. But we don't want to miss those early breast cancers,” Suzanne Mahon, DNS, RN, AOCN®, AGN-BC, FAAN, professor emeritus at Saint Louis University in Missouri, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about what oncology nurses need to know about breast cancer diagnosis.  Music Credit: “Fireflies and Stardust” by Kevin MacLeod  Licensed under Creative Commons by Attribution 3.0   Earn 0.75 contact hours of nursing continuing professional development (NCPD) by listening to the full recording and completing an evaluation at courses.ons.org by January 31, 2027. The planners and faculty for this episode have no relevant financial relationships with ineligible companies to disclose.

And I think that's a place where oncology nurses can remind—if it's patients or friends who are asking—that just because you have a call back, doesn't mean you have a malignancy.” TS 8:16  “We also know that when we call somebody back, that's very scary and anxiety provoking. And we don't want to subject women to unnecessary anxiety and stress through the procedure. And if it's too stressful, they won't come back again. That is actually a big harm that we don't want to occur. That's considered an acceptable amount. So we know that some women are going to get called back, and it's just because usually they can't see something clearly enough.” TS 11:26  “I think one of the most important things is to really help that woman understand the biopsy report. So now everybody, with most of the electronic medical records, that woman seeing that biopsy result—maybe before her provider is seeing it, depending on whether they get a chance to call that individual. But, you know, they could get a notification in their medical record, or a new report is available, and they can click on there and they could be looking at something that is very scary, not necessarily a good time, you know, like they're getting ready to do something. And so that is a problem overall with sometimes getting bad news in oncology.” TS 15:09  “Sometimes it's really good [for patients to bring] someone who can just be that set of ears or who can answer those questions, who's emotionally involved but maybe not so emotionally involved, if that makes sense. And I think that that is something we can really encourage people to identify that person who's going to really be able to support them.” TS 16:42  “When we approach a pathology report, the patient, you know, if they open that on their own, they're just going to see breast carcinoma, or they aren't going to look at all of the details of it. They can be quite overwhelming to look at. But I think that it's important to kind of take the patient through it, step by step, and realize that it's often a case of repeated measures—that you might do it and then you might do it again the next day or a day later.” TS 20:55  “Breast cancer care has changed so much over the past few decades. And I think people forget, you know, I've been in the business a long time, but years ago, everybody kind of got the same treatment if they got diagnosed. And we now understand so much about breast cancer treatment, but I think that has come on the shoulders of so, so, so many women who have enrolled in clinical trials to help us understand pathology better, to help us understand the impact of certain treatments. And so I think, first of all, we need to thank those women who have generously contributed to this base of knowledge. And it's a place where those clinical trials have really made a difference.” TS 35:46

“The statistic you always kind of want to keep in the back of your brain is that over a lifetime, one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer. So that means for an individual assigned female at birth, there's a 13% chance that if that individual lives to age 85, that they will be diagnosed with breast cancer. So, it's the most common cancer diagnosed in this group,” Suzanne Mahon, DNS, RN, AOCN®, AGN-BC, FAAN, professor emeritus at Saint Louis University in St. Louis, MO, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about breast cancer screening.  Music Credit: “Fireflies and Stardust” by Kevin MacLeod  Licensed under Creative Commons by Attribution 3.0   Earn 0.75 contact hours of nursing continuing professional development (NCPD) by listening to the full recording and completing an evaluation at courses.ons.org by January 10, 2027. The planners and faculty for this episode have no relevant financial relationships with ineligible companies to disclose.

And so that's a place where you would like to see some real progress.” TS 3:32  “Primary prevention for all individuals, which is always best to prevent, would include 150 minutes of intentional exercise, watching the diet, keeping that weight as low as possible—we want more muscle and less fat mass—and limiting alcohol intake. Then we go and we talk about screening.” TS 7:29  “The most recent statistic, and this kind of is post-COVID, is that 67% of women age 40 and over have had breast cancer screening in the last two years, which means that there's a hunk of women, 33% of women who have not had breast cancer screening in the last two years and that who are 40 and over. And that to me is a really, really sad statistic because that's a missed opportunity for screening.” TS 11:32  “Sometimes we forget that women and individuals who've had breast cancer, especially if they had it at a younger age, their risk of a second breast cancer over time is about 1% or 2% per year. So, if you have a first breast cancer at 40, and you live another 30 years, two times 30 is 60, that risk is substantial. A lot of times we don't see as much anymore, which is good. Individuals who had a lot of radiation to the chest, we used to see a lot of young individuals having radiation therapy for Hodgkin's disease that encompassed the chest, and a lot of them were diagnosed with breast cancer afterwards.” TS 15:31  “One of the things that always makes me really sad is that probably less than 40% of people who are eligible for this cascade testing, and mind you, many of the laboratories, if we test a parent and say they have a pathogenic variant, they will offer free testing to relatives for 90–120 days in that lab. They don't even have to pay for the genetic test. They just have to get the counseling and send it. But less than 40% of individuals who would benefit from cascade testing ever get it done.” TS 35:02  “I have had this privilege of sitting for decades watching genetics. That's the only area I've ever worked in that is always completely changing. And just when you think you got it, there is something new and it's really driving our oncology care. And I would really encourage people, I know we've said it about 10 times now, to look at that Genomics and Precision Medicine Learning Library, there are resources in there if you want to spend 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes—if you got a whole hour or two, there's courses. There are so many things in there, and if you really want to become more savvy, you can, and that's a great place to start.” TS 45:34

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about breast cancer, celebrating survivors, and highlighting the importance of early detection. Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women, affecting one in eight throughout their lifetime. However, with timely screenings and advances in treatment, survival rates continue to improve. https://www.medshoprx.com/breast-cancer-awareness-with-aultman-breast-care-center

“A lot of the efforts have been made to improve the patient experience for these treatments, as they can be given for years at a time. For example, when leuprolide debuted way back in 1985, it was a daily injection. But four years later, they developed the monthly depo formulation. Now we have formulations that are approved for administration once only every three, four, and even six months,” Andrew Ruplin, PharmD, clinical oncology pharmacist at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center in Seattle, WA, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about the luteinizing hormone–releasing hormone (LHRH) antagonist and agonist drug classes.

Highlights From This Episode “Between all of these agonists and antagonists, there's a broad spectrum of applications, including hormone-positive breast cancer, androgen-deprivation therapy for prostate cancer, uterine cancer, and then other non-cancer uses like uterine fibroids, and assisted reproduction fertility treatments, and other things too.” TS 3:24 “In the education of my female patients, I basically use the analogy that it is functionally inducing menopause in that person, so there can be changes to mood and cognition, energy level fatigue, body morphology, and shifts in fat distribution metabolism, which can unfortunately increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. One that almost everyone's familiar with is hot flashes, but also changes to bone mineral density, libido and physically to atrophy and dryness of vaginal mucosa, which can make sex for our patients more difficult as well.” TS 10:33 “A concept that's familiar to all professionals in the care of prostate cancer is that because LHRH agonists cause an initial increase in testosterone, which can, in essence, feed the cancer, some patients can experience worsening symptoms of their cancer, such as difficulty voiding their bladder pain, or even vertebral collapse or spinal cord compression when bone metastases are present. This is a really serious issue that should be considered ahead of starting an agonist in these patients.” TS 12:39 “I don't think we'll see any dramatic changes in treating breast cancer, since the role of these agents is a lot more limited and simply really exist to suppress estrogen and premenopausal patients. But as a referral center that routinely sees patients with breast cancer and their 40s and 30s and even their 20s, it's crucial to consider these agents in their role for not only actively treating certain types of breast cancer, but also in preserving fertility for patients who desire to have children and they are receiving gonadotoxic chemotherapy.” TS 25:32

Happy Pride Month, ya'll! If you're a member of the LGBTQ+ community, finding culturally responsive, affirming health care in general can be challenging. But when you add a breast cancer diagnosis or even finding a provider who understands the importance of screening for this community because of unique risks, it becomes even more daunting. Our guest today is Dr. Chandler Cortina, a breast surgical oncologist and clinical outcomes researcher with the Cancer Center – Froedtert (pronounced FRAY dirt) Hospital and the Medical College of Wisconsin Health System. As an openly gay man himself and an oncology provider, he has a passion for ensuring safe breast health spaces exist for members of the LGBTQ+ community and that outcomes are similar to that of their cisgender/heterosexual peers.

Breast Care Nurse Navigator at Pella Regional Health Center Kim Pearson discusses her recent collaboration with local lawmakers to pass legislation to change Iowa Health insurance laws.

Diese Meditation ist NUR FÜR FRAUEN. Männer sollten sie nicht machen, es könnte ihre Sexualität beeinflussen. Die Brust ist der positive Pol einer Frau, das, wo sie sich glücklich fühlt, wo sie voller Energie und Lebensfreude ist. Meist haben wir Frauen nur wenig Kontakt zu unseren Brüsten und wenn dann auf schmerzhafte Weise – über Brustkrebs und andere Krankheiten, über Missbrauch, über Schönheitsideale, die die eigene Brust 'hässlich' erscheinen lässt... Dabei ist die weibliche Brust das Zentrum und die geheime Tür zu großen Welten. Gleichgültig, wie alt du bist, ob du ein Kind geboren hast oder nicht, welche Form deine Brust hat oder ob du keine Brust mehr hast wegen einer Mastektomie – diese Meditation wird dir gut tun, dich stärken und zu deinem ursprünglichen Duft zurück führen. Wir machen die geführte Meditation hier im Liegen, doch du kannst sie jederzeit und in jeder Position machen. Erinnere dich im Alltag an die Meditation so oft wie möglich, komme mit deiner Aufmerksamkeit immer wieder zu deinen Brüsten zurück. Besonders gut eignet sich die Meditation vor dem Einschlafen. Die überlieferte Weisheit aus dem Buch der Geheimnisse lautet: Empfinde, wie die feinen Kräfte von Schöpfungskraft deine Brüste durchweben -– und dabei zarte Muster bilden. Lies hier die genaue Meditationsanleitung und vertiefende Worte von Osho: https://www.findyournose.com/meditation-fuer-frauen Auf https://www.sahasibreastcare.org/ findest du viele Anregungen für Breast Care, wie du deine Brust pflegen kannst. Auch in spiritueller Hinsicht. Der Podcast ist von Samarpan P. Powels, einer erfahrenen Meditationslehrerin und Herausgeberin von FindYourNose, Online Magazin für Meditation

Advances in diagnostic imaging have the potential to personalize care for the MBC community. This is because these more disease-specific or target-specific imaging agents can more precisely measure cancer activity and burden at multiple time points starting at the time the patient is diagnosed and is commonly used to determine whether a therapy has been effective. On today's show we will be discussing diagnostic imaging and its role in breast care to help enable patients to understand their diagnosis and treatment options. Joining us to share their knowledge and experience with diagnostic imaging and self-advocacy are Dr. Hannah Linden, a medical oncologist, and Gwen Manchion, who is currently living with metastatic breast cancer.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer found in women worldwide, and one of the most effective ways to combat it is early detection through screening. However, this faces several challenges, such as limited access to screening, socio-economic issues and the difficulties in getting conclusive results from some tests. Taking screening closer to the people and employing artificial intelligence in diagnostics are two viable solutions that doctors are using to promote early detection. Today, Siemens Healthineers Head of Marketing Women's Health Aline Hambüchen talks with Dr. Brian Englander, Chairman of the Pennsylvania Hospital Department of Radiology, Federica Pediconi, professor of radiology at the University of Rome La Sapienza, Marco Caballo, Ph.D., a biomedical engineer and AI researcher at Radboud University Medical Center in Gelderland, NL and Abby Weldon, Senior Director of Women's Health at Siemens Healthineers.Listen to learn about what breast cancer screening entails and the barriers stopping women from being screened.

Lucy Montgomery takes us through a day in her shoes as a Breast Care Nurse 

In honor of National Mammography Day, UEO Member Roslyn Kelly discusses with Dr. Michelle Townsend Day about the importance of mammograms, breast care, and making our health a priority especially during a pandemic.

In today's episode, VP of Essentially Women, Nikki Jensen talks with Jolly Reckenberg, partner, chairmen, and co-CEO of American Breast Care (ABC) about the start of ABC, the importance of communication and feedback in the product development process, custom breast prothesis, and why the rose is much more than just a logo to American Breast Care.  

Define the spectrum of breast disorders in adolescent male and female patients.Identify the role for pediatric plastic surgery in caring for patients with breast anomalies.Classify individual conditions and explain optimal treatment options.

When a woman finds out she has breast cancer, in many cases she needs someone to “hold her hand” through this unanticipated and frightening journey into the unknown. Women face a confusing maze of questions and often become overwhelmed very quickly. As physicians, we do our best to provide as much support and information as possible, but often we rely on a breast cancer navigator to fill in the gap for us to make sure patients have the resources they need throughout their entire cancer journey. A breast cancer navigator literally helps patients navigate the seemingly endless barrage of medical appointments, tests and treatments. They provide an invaluable service for breast cancer patients. Breast care navigators guide patients through their entire journey – from diagnosis, surgery and treatment, to life after treatment. They educate, advocate, provide resources and support, help with financial and insurance-related problems, resolve issues and remove obstacles patients face along the way – from understanding their diagnosis, to telling family members about their illness, answering questions about insurance coverage, or finding the right post op bra. During The Breast of Everything podcast, Marsha Schmit, RN, breast care navigator at Hurley Medical Center in Flint, Michigan, talks in depth about the role of a breast care navigator and the services she offers patients. She knows from experience what it is like to navigate a breast cancer journey. Marsha is a 12-year breast cancer survivor.

Episode Description: This is the episode to listen to. Tell all your girlfriends, Moms, and Aunties. Angela Barnes tells us how she co-founded the new Breast Care and Imaging Clinic called Kvinna. For years Angela was signing a waiver at her yearly mammogram until she had a gut feeling that she needed to educate herself on breast health. Angela discovered that 50% of women fall into high-risk categories for breast cancer, 1 in 10 have dense breast tissue and a growing number are getting clean mammograms, then getting a cancer diagnosis in the same year. She stumbled upon a powerful technology called Sonocine, an Automated Whole Breast Ultrasound that powerfully detects small cancers in women with dense breast tissue or with implants. With zero negative impact on the body and no toxic radiation, Sonocine offers a way for women to be proactive about their health. Although this technology has been FDA approved for over 10 years, the medical industry isn’t interested, it’s up to the US to spread the word! LISTEN NOW!

Guest Bio: Angela Barnes lives in beautiful Liberty Lake, WA in the heart of the Pacific Northwest. She is married to her best friend and together they have raised three kids. She has dedicated the last 22 years to raising her children and working in several women’s ministries. Her heart and passion for women living healthy and whole lives is the driving force behind all she does. This mission has led her to this next chapter in her life. She is the president and co-found of KVINNA Breast Care and Imaging clinic. The first clinic is located in Liberty Lake and is opening in early 2021. After searching for better breast screening options for herself as a woman with augmentation, she stumbled upon a little known but powerful technology called SonoCine. SonoCine is an Automated Whole Breast Ultrasound that powerfully detects small cancers in women with dense breast tissue or with implants. Angela has painfully experienced the failure of mammography for women with dense breast tissue. One of her best friends is battling a stage 4 diagnosis because mammography alone didn’t give her the early detection she needed due to her dense breast tissue. After discovering how SonoCine would have made a difference in her friend’s life, and learning that tens of thousands of these stories happen every year in our country alone, she has made it her mission to bring this powerful ultrasound technology to the masses. Angela is committed to making sure woman are educated and then empowered to make the very best decisions for their health.

PROFILE - Een gespecialiseerd ziekenhuis voor borstkanker en borstaandoeningen met alle zorg onder één dak. Oncologisch chirurg Marjolein de Jong bouwt aan een "toegankelijke, integrale, gespecialiseerde en betrokken" aanpak voor patiënten met Breast Care Nederland.Het aantal vrouwen dat borstkanker krijgt ligt rond de 15.000 per jaar en stijgt nog altijd. “Er zijn veel factoren die kunnen bijdragen aan het ontstaan van de ziekte, maar wellicht belangrijker is hoe je erdoorheen komt”, zegt De Jong. "Ik geloof in andere zorg, er is ruimte om het anders te doen."Als je alle factoren combineert kun je excelleren in de zorg, zegt De Jong. In haar loopbaan als chirurg ontstond steeds meer aandacht voor de manier waarop de zorg nu is georganiseerd. "Hoe staat de patiënt hierin?"GastvrijEr komen volgens De Jong zoveel dingen kijken bij de zorg voor borstkankerpatiënten dat je moet kijken naar wat het juiste model is. "Niet alleen het medische deel, maar ook het aanvullende deel. Hoe toegankelijk en gastvrij ben je? Hoeveel tijd neem je voor iemand? Hoe neem je de telefoon op? Het moet om de patiënt draaien."Breast Care Nederland specialiseert zich om de patiënt meer centraal te kunnen stellen. "Wij maken ons als ziekenhuis druk om de medische kant, maar ook het hele traject van nazorg als je weer thuis bent." En dat is niet duurder, maar juist efficiënter door de organisatie, aldus De Jong.
