In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Anjali Malik, a board-certified, fellowship-trained breast imaging radiologist and passionate women's health advocate. Together, we tackle the most common questions women ask about breast imaging—straight from the OB/GYN office.From the differences between mammograms, ultrasounds, and MRIs, to when and why you need each one, Dr. Malik breaks it all down with clarity and compassion. We also dive into breast density, risk factors, and how to advocate for your breast health with confidence.

RUSH MD Anderson Cancer Center's Breast Cancer Risk Assessment and Personalized Screening Program incorporates sophisticated diagnostic and therapeutic tools that Lisa Stempel, MD, and her colleagues use to determine the most effective care pathway for patients who are at high risk for breast cancer. Dr. Stempel is a diagnostic radiologist at RUSH MD Anderson. She is chief of the Division of Breast Imaging and director of the High-Risk Cancer Screening Program at RUSH MD Anderson. “Screening mammography is a great model we can use for early detection for other types of cancers. For example, if we can catch breast cancer in its early stages, say stage 0 or 1, there's a 99.9% cure rate. Even if it's stage 2, we have a 93% cure rate. Early detection applies to almost all types of cancers, too. What we've learned is that with mammography and the addition of supplemental screening tests, we can find breast cancer at the earliest stages.”  

“Breast imaging and radiology seems like a small part of the body, but yet it could really go a mile deep.” Dr. Lilian O. Ebuoma shared that poetic line on this podcast episode, and it beautifully sums up her life's work and the reason she beautifully aligns with the 7 Essentials System®. She's a Harvard-trained breast radiologist, certified physician executive, social entrepreneur, U.S. Navy Veteran, transformational speaker, and certified professional coach who goes a mile deep. Instead of just looking at the images alone to assist women in healing breast cancer, Dr. Ebuoma helps them discover health and wellness practices, provides easy access to screening tools, and even started a nonprofit in Nigeria that focuses on improving breast cancer morbidity.  In short, Dr. Ebuoma is your breast's best friend.  Tune in for this eye-opening and inspiring conversation, and bring your notepad.

I'm excited to introduce you to Dr. Yvonne Karney. She's a traditionally trained gynecologist who realized she needed more tools to be able to serve her patients better. Dr. Karney transitioned into offering integrative care to her patients and has now gone into offering a new form of breast imaging for women called a QT scan. When it comes to breast health, the earlier we can identify an issue, the better. Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer women experience. Mammograms have been used for screening imaging for over 50 years, but they are associated with risks. Has technology not advanced beyond that? The field of women's health is constantly evolving, and it's crucial that we stay informed about the latest advancements, which is exactly why I asked Dr. Karney to come talk to us at How Humans Heal today about QT imaging.

Imagine walking into a clinic feeling anxious about a possible cancer diagnosis and leaving with all your concerns addressed, feeling genuinely cared for and understood.  Unfortunately, for too many patients today, that's simply not the case. The pressure of production goals, burned out and short-handed physicians, and an increase in administrative load are a few of the challenges that doctors and medical staff face day-to-day.    As a result, patients who are awaited results from diagnostic tests like mammograms have their anxiety rise and are left feeling like a number. In this illuminating episode of The Delighted Customers Podcast, we dive deep into the art and science of patient communication with Rachel Hitt, MD.  As the Medical Director of Patient Experience for the Tufts Medicine Integrated Network, and Division Chief of Breast Imaging for Tufts Medical Center, Dr. Rachel sheds light on the pivotal role of efficient care and effective communication in enhancing patient interactions. Discover how active listening, empathy, and breaking down complex medical jargon into digestible information can transform a patient's experience.  1. Why are effective communication and efficient care essential in patient interactions? 2. How do empathy, active listening, and partnership with the patient contribute to communication in healthcare? 3. What are some strategies for breaking down medical information into understandable chunks for patients? 4. How can meeting patients where they are, including considering language barriers and providing interpreter services, improve patient experience? The lessons that Dr. Hitt shares on this episode aren't limited to healthcare - after all, humans have the same needs regardless of the environment.

In this episode of & So Much More, our host, Cami Smith, is joined by Dr. Audrey Graham, the Medical Director of Breast Imaging at Centra. Together, they shed light on the crucial topic of breast cancer awareness and the significance of breast health. Having worked at Centra for over 14 years, Dr. Graham has dedicated her medical career to work in breast imaging and being an advocate for women's health. One of the key points that they discuss is how women often prioritize the well-being of those they care for, putting themselves second and subsequently not seeking preventative care. Cami and Dr. Graham also delve into the symptoms that should immediately prompt women to seek medical care, such as experiencing pain in the breast or noticing something unusual. Dr. Graham emphasizes the pivotal role of mammograms in early detection and explains how this diagnostic tool can uncover breast cancer in its earliest stages when it appears as just a few tiny specks before any symptoms are evident.You won't want to miss this encouraging and insightful conversation that will help you and your loved ones understand the importance of preventative care and breast health at any age!For more content from Centra Health check us out on the following channels.YouTubeFacebookInstagramTwitter

Are you looking for a safe and effective way to monitor your breast health without undergoing the radiation of mammograms? If so, you're in luck because we're talking and learning about thermography today! And it just so happens to be the perfect solution. This medical tool uses infrared and thermal imaging to look at your body's health in a whole different light. It can reveal signals of potentially problematic areas to keep an eye on, but also may reveal hormonal imbalances, and show varying degrees of inflammation in the body. In this interview we talk about the unique insight thermography gives to help identify abnormalities in the tissue and body, in ways that blood work, ultrasound, and mammograms just can't provide.  Andrea Shoemake is a nutritionist and a certified thermographer, with 13 years of experience providing thermography. Andrea graduated with honors from Middle Tennessee State University with a Bachelor's of Science Degree in Nutrition and Dietetics. Andrea has always been passionate about disease prevention and wellness education, which provided the perfect foundation and transition into the field of thermography.
