I am excited to have Dr. Yvonne Karney with me for a two-part series focused on breast imaging options and the importance of informed consent. In Part 1 today, we discuss the limitations of current breast screening options and how to protect yourself if you choose to get mammograms or MRIs. We also introduce you to QT Imaging, which is the future of breast imaging. Benefits of early detection: It allows for procedures like lumpectomy instead of extensive surgery Early-stage cancers often require less chemotherapy or radiation Detecting cancer early generally improves the chance of recovery and survival Smaller interventions preserve appearance and more tissue  Early treatment can be quicker, simpler, and less traumatic  Yvonne Karney's Bio: Yvonne Karney is a medical doctor, traditionally trained in gynecology, and a former United States Air Force physician, who converted to integrative medicine when she realized she didn't have the right tools to help her patients achieve true health.  She is the founder of Vitality Renewal Functional Medicine in the Chicago suburbs, where her newest venture is to revolutionize breast imaging by offering an option that has the image quality of MRI WITHOUT radiation, IV contrast, or painful compression.  She's on a mission to give women options for breast imaging and educate them about the risks and benefits of the current breast cancer screening recommendations.  In this episode: How mammograms are pushed without real informed choice The value of early detection   How false positives tend to fuel fear and lead to extra procedures Risks that come with breast compression and radiation How overdiagnosis leads to overtreatment The problems associated with MRIs  How true 3D imaging could change the future of breast screening Links and Resources: Guest Social Media Links: Vitality Renewal Breast Imaging Yvonne Karney on YouTube Yvonne Karney on Instagram Vitality Renewal Functional Medicine  Relative Links for This Show: Try Halo (Salt) Therapy for respiratory and skin health.

In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of "Not Your Mother's Menopause," host Dr. Fiona Lovely welcomes back integrative oncologist and breast surgeon Dr. Jenn Simmons for their annual conversation. As we enter Breast Health Awareness Month, Dr. Simmons presents a compelling critique of the current screening paradigm, challenging long-held beliefs about mammograms. She delves into the concerning issue of over-diagnosis, explaining how finding and treating certain conditions, like DCIS, may not correlate with saving lives and can instead lead to unnecessary treatments with significant side effects. The discussion offers a hopeful path forward, focusing on true prevention and empowering women with knowledge. Dr. Simmons introduces innovative, less invasive screening options and emphasizes the foundational principle that breast health is overall health. She also tackles the controversial topic of hormone replacement therapy after a breast cancer diagnosis, sharing her clinical perspective on its safety and importance for quality of life.  This episode is an essential listen for any woman seeking to make truly informed decisions about her health, advocating for a more logical, personalized, and proactive approach to breast care.  You can find out more about Dr Jenn Simmons here.

In this episode of Confessions of a Male Gynecologist, Dr. Shawn Tassone explores the vital connection between hormone health and breast cancer screening. Drawing from his best-selling book The Hormone Balance Bible, he breaks down the most common screening methods — mammography, ultrasound, and thermography — and explains how each one works, their benefits, and their limitations. Dr. Tassone also discusses emerging imaging technologies, like the QT scan, and emphasizes why understanding your options is key to prevention and peace of mind. Whether you're curious about alternative testing methods or looking to make informed choices about your breast health, this episode empowers women with knowledge to take charge of their own care. Episode Highlights: Key takeaways from The Hormone Balance Bible on hormone imbalances and overall wellness The differences between mammography, ultrasound, and thermography in breast cancer screening Why thermography is a physiological test, while mammography and ultrasound focus on structure The pros and cons of each screening method — and why no single test is perfect How ultrasound can sometimes catch what mammograms miss The lower false-positive rate associated with thermography The promise of emerging imaging technologies like the QT scan Why prevention is more powerful than detection in the fight against cancer How to choose the breast screening method that aligns best with your health goals and comfort level Episode Resources: Dr. Shawn Tassone's Practice | Tassone Advanced Gynecology Dr. Shawn Tassone's Book | The Hormone Balance Bible Dr. Shawn Tassone's Integrative Hormonal Mapping System | Hormonal Archetype Quiz Medical Disclaimer This podcast and website represent the opinions of Dr. Shawn Tassone and his guests.

When public systems like health care, mental health services, and schools begin to disappear, people lose more than access—they can lose hope, and sometimes even their lives. Today, Camerino Salazar shares what he has learned from decades of research into why more Texans are dying from things like suicide, drug overdoses, and alcohol. What does it really mean when entire communities get left behind? Why are some policies leading to higher death rates in certain Texas populations? How does this affect people in rural areas, especially when hospitals close? Key Questions Answered What is killing Texans and what are the leading causes discussed? How do policy decisions affect health outcomes in Texas? What is the role of an evaluator in organizations like The Rose? Who are the populations most affected by rising deaths of despair in Texas? How does legislation regarding healthcare and hospitals impact rural communities? Why would certain communities support policies that might ultimately harm their own health interests? How is life expectancy in Texas trending compared to other states? What myths exist about Texas’ uninsured and Medicaid? How do the restrictions on preventive services and reproductive healthcare impact women’s health in Texas? What can regular people do to address these issues?

During Hispanic Heritage Month, we reflect not only on cultural pride but also on the urgent health challenges facing the Latino community. Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among Latinas, and yet barriers such as language, limited access to care and cultural stigma often prevent women from receiving the support they need. In this episode of Real Pink, we're joined by Dr. Laura Logie of Nueva Vida, a trusted partner of Susan G. Komen® and a member of the ShareForCures® Alliance. Together, we'll explore how culturally responsive care can transform the breast cancer experience, break down barriers and ensure that Latinas feel seen, heard and supported every step of the way.

It's the smallest of the seven major cities in Hampton Roads, but sadly Portsmouth has the highest breast cancer mortality rate in Virginia.

In fact, until recently, there was no place in Portsmouth for women to go to get a mammogram! We talk about one local healthcare system that has stepped in to fill the gap - the Bon Secours Portsmouth Women's Imaging Center - and how its work is making a difference in saving women's lives.

In this powerful episode of The Radiology Report, we sit down with Dr. Lilian Ebuoma, a breast radiologist, U.S. Navy veteran, certified coach, and changemaker, whose mission is saving lives through early detection and equitable care. As the founder of Lilly Women's Health and the Lilly Cares Foundation in Nigeria, Dr. Ebuoma is working to close the vast gap in breast cancer outcomes between the U.S. and Africa, where access to screening and early diagnosis is critically limited. With just 300 radiologists serving a population of over 200 million, Nigeria sees more than 30,000 women die annually from late-stage breast cancer, a stark contrast to the 90% survival rate seen in the U.S. But Dr. Ebuoma is changing that. In this episode, we cover: Her journey from Nigeria to the U.S. and from military service to medicine How she's leading the charge in expanding access to breast imaging across underserved communities The cultural and systemic barriers to early detection in Nigeria and how she's helping overcome them The inspiration behind her book, Love Your Breasts, Love Yourself Her passion for coaching and empowering the next generation of healthcare leaders

Dr. Julie Cupp, breast surgeon with Willis Knighton Breast Health & Surgical Specialists, talks about breast health, screenings, and when to seek a specialist.

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) women — but far too often, cultural stigma, language barriers and a lack of tailored education prevent early detection and timely care. To celebrate AANHPI Month, we're joined by Dr. Judy Wang, a national leader in cancer prevention and behavioral science at the Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center. Dr. Wang unpacks how breast cancer uniquely impacts AANHPI communities, and why culturally responsive communication is critical in closing gaps in education, screening and survivorship. She also shares how providers, advocates and researchers can better meet AANHPI women where they are — with humility, trust and cultural understanding.

Her journey into breast cancer care began with a personal tragedy. At the age of 16, Dr. Jenn's cousin, acclaimed singer-songwriter Linda Creed, died of metastatic breast cancer just weeks after Whitney Houston's recording of her iconic song, "The Greatest Love of All," topped the charts. This loss became a defining moment, inspiring Dr. Jenn to dedicate her life to transforming how we approach breast cancer treatment and prevention.Dr. Jenn became Philadelphia's first fellowship-trained breast surgeon and spent 17 years leading the field. However, her perspective changed significantly when she became a patient herself. Through this personal experience, Dr. Jenn saw how broken the conventional medical system can be. This led her to discover and embrace functional medicine, a revelation that sparked her journey towards a more holistic approach to breast cancer care.This personal journey led her to create Real Health MD in 2019, a practice dedicated to holistic healing for breast cancer. It integrates conventional wisdom with root cause medicine and the drivers of health: nutrition, lifestyle changes, detoxification, and stress management. Dr. Jenn's innovative approach doesn't stop there. As the founder of PerfeQTion Imaging, she is establishing safe imaging centers across the nation, armed with revolutionary technology that promises to redefine breast cancer screening. This technology is not only fast and safe but also comfortable, affordable, radiation-free, and boasts 40 times the resolution of MRI. It has received FDA clearance, signaling a new era in breast health and breast cancer screening.In addition to her clinical practice, Dr. Jenn hosts the "Keeping Abreast" podcast, where she shares her expertise and encourages women to take control of their breast health. Her book, "The Smart Woman's Guide to Breast Cancer," challenges conventional wisdom and promotes a holistic approach. It emphasizes the importance of nutrition, lifestyle choices, and addressing environmental toxins, providing practical steps for women seeking to navigate breast cancer treatment and regain control of their health.Beyond her professional endeavors, Dr. Jenn is a devoted wife, mother, stepmother, grandmother, and athlete. Her life's mission is deeply personal, rooted in her cousin's memory, and driven by a desire to make a lasting impact on all those who desire breast health.

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.
