Dry mouth is more than an inconvenience. It can affect eating, speaking, sleeping, oral health, and overall quality of life, but identifying the cause isn't always straightforward. In this episode, Dr. Hayley Vatcher, an Oral Medicine Specialist, joins Dr. Grant Stucki to explain how oral surgeons can better recognize, diagnose, and manage salivary gland disorders. She clarifies the difference between xerostomia (subjective dryness) and true salivary hypofunction (clinical dryness), outlines a practical diagnostic approach, and discusses the many factors that can reduce salivary flow, from medications and radiation therapy to autoimmune conditions such as Sjögren's syndrome. Dr. Vatcher also reviews current treatment options, including lifestyle modifications, prescription medications, and salivary gland therapies, while sharing promising research into regenerative treatments that may one day restore salivary function rather than simply relieve symptoms. Discover practical strategies that can help improve care for patients living with salivary gland dysfunction.Key Points From This Episode:Today's guest and topic: Dr. Hayley Vatcher discusses salivary gland disorders.Why saliva is essential for oral health and quality of life.Common causes of dry mouth and salivary gland dysfunction.A practical approach to evaluating patients with dry mouth.Identifying xerostomia (subjective dryness) vs. true salivary hypofunction (clinical dryness).Measuring salivary flow to guide diagnosis and treatment.First-line lifestyle changes and over-the-counter treatment options.When to prescribe medications to stimulate salivary flow.Managing medication-induced dry mouth with physicians.Radiation and chemo-related dry mouth and promising regenerative therapies.Causes and treatment of hypersalivation and how to identify it.How Sjögren's syndrome and other autoimmune diseases can cause dry mouth.Diagnosing Sjögren's syndrome with clinical testing and biopsy.Treatment strategies that reduce oral complications for patients with Sjögren's syndrome.What the evidence says about mouth taping for dry mouth.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Hayley Vatcher — https://www.charlestonoralandfacialsurgery.com/hayley-vatcherDr. Hayley Vatcher on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/hvatcher/ Dr. Hayley Vatcher on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/dr.hayleyvatcher/Dr. Hayley Vatcher Email — hvatcher@gmail.comCharleston Oral and Facial Surgery — https://www.charlestonoralandfacialsurgery.com/TheraBreath Dry Mouth Lozenges — https://www.therabreath.com/collections/lozenges-gumAquoral Spray — https://aquoralspray.com/Biotène — https://www.biotene.com/Salivea — https://www.salivea.com/Colgate PreviDent — https://www.colgate.com/en-us/previdentClinpro Tooth Crème — https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K5HV1HOBoka — https://www.boka.com/Cevimeline — https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/cevimeline-oral-route/description/drg-20062661Pilocarpine — https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/pilocarpine-oral-route/description/drg-20065496Dr. Michael T.

Artificial Intelligence is buzzy. There's a lot about it in the news and a lot we think we understand about how to use it and a lot we may not fully understand. But the promise it holds is tremendous, and today we're going to learn a little more about how it could benefit breast cancer research and patient care in the near future. Drs. Charles Perou at UNC Chapel Hill and Erika Crosby at Duke University are two very accomplished breast cancer researchers who are joining us today to share their perspectives on using AI now and in the future. Key takeaways AI is improving breast cancer screening and diagnosis. Researchers are using AI to save time on coding, writing, and data analysis. AI can help match patients to clinical trials more effectively. Human expertise is still needed to verify AI-generated results. AI has the potential to accelerate research and improve patient care.

Welcome to Mysteries to Die For.I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you in the heart of a mystery. All stories are structured to challenge you to beat the detective to the solution. Jack and I perform these live, front to back, no breaks, no fakes, no retakes.In the world's most dangerous working environments it can seem like everything is out to kill you. The equipment you use. The materials you work with. The very air you breathe. Stored energy is a coiled viper waiting for the right moment to lash out. Owners, manufacturers, contractors, and beyond have developed safety protocols to combat STCKY, that is, Stuff That Can Kill You. Gravity, Motion, Mechanical, Electrical, Pressure, Sound, Radiation, Biological, Chemical, Temperature. This season is all about the means of murder as authors put our STCKY detective skills to the test. This is Season 9, Stuff That Can Kill You.This is Episode 14, where heat, pressure, chemical, and mechanical are our STCKY means of death. This is The Rendering of Truth by Chuck BrownmanDELIBERATIONAlone, neither Lena nor Mercer have what it takes to crack the case. But together, and with our help, we can figure out what happened to Eddie Weller and Dale Curtis. Here's the suspect list, in the order we met them:Junior Lattimore, rendering techJohn Reese, plant managerTanya Lowell, accounting clerk and office mateFrank Jackson, rendering foremanDale Curtis, plant foremanHere are the facts that Lena and Mercer have uncovered:• Eddie Weller, newly promoted to Operations Reviewer, went into the rendering pit. The pit was activated and Eddie died from a lethal combination of heat, oxygen deprivation, and mechanical grinding.Eddie was formerly an operating tech and, in his new role, signed off on the maintenance documentation. He knew the paperwork or safety protections he knew was needed to enter the confined space.No one offered an explanation of why Eddie would have entered the pit.Junior Lattimore did not look into the pit before he turned it on. He had no reason to think anyone was in it.A search of Eddie's desk found evidence of falsified invoices for filters. The invoices were signed by Reese. He added a note to check with DC, interpreted as Dale Curtis.Tanya prepares the invoices for Reese's signature. She said he directed her to process the invoices for his approval, saying they were a rush job from a new vendor.Reese said he signs the invoices Tanya prepares, implying he did not scrutinize or even read the documents.A torn piece of bank statement found in the trash in the office Eddie and Tanya shared had a sizable balance but no nameCurtis later heard Eddie in his office talking to someone about stealing, but couldn't see who as the door was closed.Mercer recognized Steam Line #4 was tampered with. The line then failed catastrophically killing Dale Curtis. He was found with a pipe wrench in the vicinity.A drawing of the plant found in Eddie's apartment also highlighted Steam Line #4 as out of compliance on maintenance inspection.Lena and Mercer speculate the person or persons behind the “accidents” had to have an understanding of the plant to orchestrate both deaths.Tanya had knowledge and access to the invoice, but does not have knowledge of the plant. Tanya and Eddie shared an office and were friends. Eddie spent time with her son.Junior had knowledge of the rendering area, but did not have access to accounting. Junior lost out on the promotion to Eddie and was bitter.Junior had no apparent problem with Dale Curtis.Jackson had knowledge of the rendering area. Recently separated, he and Tanya were dating. He often when to her office, and even helped straighten Tanya's desk for her. He was there in the office when Eddie died.Reese claims his knowledge of the plant isn't detailed. He signed off on plant expenditures.Whose greed was paid for with the lives of Eddie Weller and Dale Curtis?MEMBERSHIPS!Mysteries to Die For now has memberships!

"Think about what organs lie in the radiation field, and anything that lies in that radiation field is likely going to have some potential temporary—hopefully temporary—side effects. If you think about the pelvis, the things that live in there are the bladder, urethra, some bowel, rectum, reproductive organs, skin, some lymph nodes. And so, all of those things could potentially have associated side effects," ONS member Kayla Kafka-Peterson, BSN, RN, ROCN™, nurse navigator and leader in the brachytherapy and peri-anesthesia programs at UCLA Health, in Los Angeles, CA, told Lenise Taylor, MN, RN, AOCNS®, TCTCN™, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, during a conversation about radiation side effects in cancers of the pelvis.

LDR stands for low-dose-rate radiation, which is the older type of brachytherapy, but it is still very much practiced today. And it is where we put radioactive seeds directly into the tumor or tumor resection bed, depending on what you're treating. And those pieces of radioactive material, such as iodine-125 or palladium-103, those will give off radiation over time and treat the area that they are in, and they will place more or less seeds into the tumor, depending on that patient's needs and their anatomy." TS 3:26 "The most common [side effect] for external beam is bladder irritation—cystitis. It can be some burning, some frequency, some urgency, and it can often mimic a UTI [urinary tract infection]. We also have to make sure our patients do not have a UTI. Most of the time they don't, but we don't want to miss that. Once a UTI has been ruled out, the mucosa in the bladder and the urethra, it has a very high cell turnover rate. And things with a high cellular turnover rate like mucosal linings, they respond to radiation very quickly. They also heal very quickly, but they start to break down quite quickly during radiation." TS 16:15 "For the bladder, some things that we can teach the patients … to keep their urinary system as comfortable as possible during treatment. We really encourage hydration because the more hydrated they are, the more diluted their urine will be and the less acidic it will be. As those tissues start to respond to the radiation, they will become, for lack of a better word, a little bit raw. And if you think of something acidic going on something that is raw, it's going to burn, and these patients do get burning. And so by promoting hydration, their urine becomes less acidic; it doesn't burn as much when they do urinate. And I find a lot of patients who are experiencing the urinary side effects, they don't want to drink because they're afraid to urinate. And it actually makes the burning worse because their urine gets ultra-concentrated." TS 22:29 "Anybody who has a vagina, who receives treatment to the pelvis—it doesn't matter if it's for vaginal cancer or if it's for bowel or rectal—if they have received radiation to the pelvis, they are at risk for vaginal stenosis and adhesions. And this, of course, can be more pronounced in patients who have a higher dose in the vagina or a larger surface volume of the vagina treated. But over time, that tissue, even long after radiation is done, will undergo late changes where they will have continued scar formation, and it starts to lose its elasticity and its functionality. And at times it can stick to itself, causing these adhesions." TS 28:15 "I think a common misconception is that you cannot safely work around radiation. That is something that I have heard a lot. In certain regions of the world, the nurses actually report that they have been having trouble getting good applicants because nobody wants to work in radiation because they think that you'll get radiated, that it's not safe. We've really tried to make radiation safety a big part of our teaching to show that actually, you can safely work around radiation with today's technology." TS 41:43

We know that clinical trials are a critical lifeline, offering new ways to prevent, detect, diagnose and treat breast cancer. Today, patient advocates are transforming clinical trials by bringing the real-world experiences of patients directly to researchers. By acting as a bridge between science and the community, patient advocates boost enrollment in clinical trials, and help build a lasting trust Today we are speaking with Dr. Lior Braunstein, a radiation oncologist and researcher at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, and Dr. Ellen Landsberger, a retired OB-GYN and patient advocate, also at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Together they are working on the ARCHER clinical trial, a study that is investigating a new treatment strategy for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. We'll talk about what they are hoping to accomplish through the ARCHER trial, what their collaborative process looks like and how patient advocates in clinical trials can help improve patient outcomes. Key Takeaways: Patient advocates help design better clinical trials The ARCHER trial aims to improve treatment outcomes Patient voices shape research from the very beginning Clinical trials study both treatment and quality of life Better access helps more patients join clinical trials Chapters 00:00:00 – Why patient advocates belong at the clinical trial design table 00:04:44 – From breast cancer survivor to patient advocate 00:07:46 – How advocates shape research and address patient concerns 00:12:08 – Inside the ARCHER trial and its goal to improve metastatic breast cancer treatment 00:19:03 – Measuring quality of life and improving access to clinical trials 00:26:28 – How patients can become advocates and influence future research
In this episode of Keeping Abreast, Dr. Jenn Simmons sits down with Ivy Harris, a homeschool mom of four, researcher, and soon-to-be certified homeopath behind the blog Done with Diligence, for part one of a two-part conversation on the hidden risks of mammograms and breast cancer screening. Ivy is not a doctor. She's a mom who decided she wasn't going to walk into her first mammogram without doing her own homework first, and what she found is the reason this episode exists.It started with one post, Ivy broke down what she'd learned about mammograms into five parts, shared it, and watched it split her audience in half, with some women thanking her and others telling her she was going to get people killed. Dr. Jenn picks up exactly where Ivy left off and does the math no one does at check-in: 40 million screening mammograms a year, and by the numbers in the study Ivy found, the radiation alone works out to tens of thousands of cancers and over a thousand deaths a year. This is the episode you'll want to send to every woman who's ever been told a mammogram is simply safe, simply necessary, and not worth questioning.What You'll LearnThe naming decision behind "mammogram" that Dr. Jenn says was never an accidentIonizing radiation is a classified carcinogen, and why radiologists won't apply that logic to their own testThe cross-country flight radiation comparison doctors use to reassure you, and why it doesn't hold upHow breast density and size can mean 10x more radiation for one woman than another in the same mammogramWhy younger breast tissue takes more damage from radiation as screening age keeps getting pushed lowerOverdiagnosis: the NIH's own number is as high as 1 in 2 women screenedWhy DCIS, diagnosed in 90,000 women a year, has no physical route to become life-threatening breast cancerHow standard DCIS treatment can raise heart failure and fracture risk higher than the diagnosis itselfFalse positives and the 80% benign biopsy rate hiding behind every mammogram callbackWhat a 2026 American College of Physicians paper found on mammograms and breast cancer mortality, at every ageWhy decades of mammography have increased mastectomies by 20%, the opposite of what screening promisedLead time bias: how a screening test can look life-saving on paper without changing when anyone actually diesThe UK surgeon forced to resign for telling women the truth about mammogram screeningEpisode Timeline:00:00 Introducing Ivy Harris and Done with Diligence02:27 Why Ivy researched mammogram safety before her first screening03:00 Going past the rumors to the actual breast cancer research04:13 Her viral mammogram post and the backlash that followed05:32 Standing firm on breast cancer screening controversy07:39 Radiation risks: why a mammogram is a breast x-ray09:12 The studies linking mammogram radiation to breast cancer11:14 How radiation damages younger breast tissue13:36 The math: 40 million mammograms and radiation-induced cancer deaths17:59 Overdiagnosis and unnecessary breast cancer treatment26:14 The train analogy for mammogram overdiagnosis28:12 How breast cancer actually progresses versus the screening myth32:29 The real harm of overdiagnosis and overtreatment34:54 Why mammograms don't reduce all-cause breast cancer mortality50:15 Lead time bias and misleading screening survival statistics52:04 Michael Baum, saving breasts, and a Part 2 previewResources Mentioned:American College of Physicians, Annals of Internal Medicine, April 2026: https://www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M22-3424Guest: Ivy HarrisWhere to find her: Done with Diligence & @donewithdiligenceTo talk to a member of Dr. Jenn's team and learn more about working privately with Dr. Jenn visit: https://calendly.com/stephanie-1031/clarity-callTo get your copy of Dr. Jenn's book, The Smart Woman's Guide to Breast Cancer, visit: https://tinyurl.com/SmartWomansBreastCancerGuideTo purchase the auria breast cancer screening test go here https://auria.care/ and use the code DRJENN20 for 20% Off.Connect with Dr. Jenn:Website: https://www.jennsimmonsmd.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrJennSimmonsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjennsimmons/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dr.jennsimmons

Radiation oncologist and director Roshan Sethi: confidence in medicine is mostly performance. The book club is back, and M2s Anna Royer, Ellie Johnson, and Sofia Hueser, and M4 Alex Nigg all crowd around to grill an actual Hollywood director about his debut novel. Somewhere in Roshan Sethi‘s frontal lobe is a cyst, and it’s possibly why he is a reformed gunner, Hollywood writer/director, still radiation oncologist, and now novelist. Sethi is co-creator of Fox’s The Resident, and author of The Simp: A Novel Without a Hero, a new book built out of a viral job ad so horrifying nobody would claim authorship of it. What does it mean that Raj, the novel’s desperate, self-aware sycophant of a protagonist, reads less like a Hollywood assistant and more like a third-year on rotations? Sethi doesn’t dodge the comparison—he wrote most of Raj’s obliging, invisible, gunner-brained misery straight out of his own decade in medicine. Sethi describes himself, pre-Hollywood, as ruthless enough to publish 15 papers in a single year for a career he’s since walked mostly away from–he still practices 9 weeks a year–and he does the math on what staying in medicine actually cost him: when The Resident got greenlit for a sixth season and syndication, he’d already turned the show down to finish residency, a decision one producer later priced at $12 million. Sethi traces a lot of that old ambition back to being closeted through college and medical school; the striving, he says, was never really about medicine, and coming out took most of the edge off it. Also, what happens to a person’s personality over four years of medical school? Sethi’s answer: it gets slowly closeted right along with everything else, trained out of you until invisibility reads as professionalism. He tells the room the worst response to getting pimped isn’t “I don’t know”—it’s saying it apologetically, like you owe someone an explanation for not yet knowing something nobody expects you to know. Speaking of things that require confidence you don’t actually have: Sethi’s next film, The Surgeon, stars Michelle Yeoh as a retired surgeon taken hostage and forced to operate. Dave can’t wait. He even pitched Sethi on his own idea for a movie that’s not at all derivative, and though it will probably star Mark Ruffalo, Dave is available. On representation, Sethi draws a sharp line between his two industries. Medicine has become more female and more Indian, Asian, and Nigerian over time precisely because it runs on an objective, if imperfect, filter that values whoever scores highest on the MCAT. Hollywood, by his account, has no equivalent filter: roughly 90 percent of the highest-grossing films are still directed by men; minorities in the industry get treated as diversity projects rather than talent, and there’s nothing resembling medicine’s blunt, if flawed, meritocracy.

Welcome to Mysteries to Die For.I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you in the heart of a mystery. All stories are structured to challenge you to beat the detective to the solution. Jack and I perform these live, front to back, no breaks, no fakes, no retakes.In the world's most dangerous working environments it can seem like everything is out to kill you. The equipment you use. The materials you work with. The very air you breathe. Stored energy is a coiled viper waiting for the right moment to lash out. Owners, manufacturers, contractors, and beyond have developed safety protocols to combat STCKY, that is, Stuff That Can Kill You. Gravity, Motion, Mechanical, Electrical, Pressure, Sound, Radiation, Biological, Chemical, Temperature. This season is all about the means of murder as authors put our STCKY detective skills to the test. This is Season 9, Stuff That Can Kill You.This is Episode 13, where chemical is our STCKY means of death. This is Speed Kills by Chuck Brownman, a re-broadcast of the Season 5 episode first dropped on February 3, 2023MEMBERSHIPS!Mysteries to Die For now has memberships!

First Alastair Stubbins and Quentin Ballinger are gassed, then Sergei Ivanov gets singed. Here is a list of everything with a heartbeat in the house…• Alastair Stubbins, a victim, but also an inventor who controlled the world from his little corner. He liked making people dance to his tune. He had a great vision for QN-7 but needed a financial partner to make it reality.• Quentin Ballinger, a victim, the chosen financial partner but a man who had money issues. Living in Monaco didn't stop his company from being on the brink of bankruptcy. He had a reputation for building cheaply.• Sergei Ivanov, an almost victim, but a man who wouldn't accept coming in second. He had a reputation for top quality.• Mrs. Ashley Stubbins, a trophy wife with a pre-nup who loved her hubby. Really, she did.• Regan Stubbins, the mechanical engineering daughter and heir apparent who didn't like the deal her father was rigging.• Paul Stubbins, the artist in residence who didn't like anything about his father except his moneyNow that we have the heartbeats straight…here's a summary of what we know.• Quentin Ballinger and Sergei Ivanov were staying at the Stubbins' estate, one of them would close on a deal with Alastair Stubbins to complete the design and produce the QN-7.• The QN-7 was outfitted with next generation artificial intelligence that would let it learn to the point of making its own decisions. It was a top-secret operation. Only two key fobs existed. One Stubbins had and the other he gave to his wife.• Security information showed the door to the garage opened at eleven fifty at night. This is assumed to be Stubbins and Ballinger.• Stubbins and Ballinger died of carbon dioxide poisoning that came from the QN-7. There are signs of some sort of struggle, but there was no damage to either body and both were found next to the QN-7. The times of death was pinned between eleven pm and 2 am.• Security information showed the door to the garage opened again at twelve forty-seven. This is assumed to be the killer.• All the doors were closed – man doors and garage doors. There is no explanation for why the two able-bodied men didn't open a door and walk out.• Sergei Ivanov reports being in his bedroom all night. This was neither confirmed nor denied.• Ashley Stebbins was in her bedroom all night. This was neither confirmed nor denied.• Paul Stebbins was alone in his room in the carriage house all night. This was confirmed only by Regan.• Regan Stebbins was alone in her room in the carriage house all night. Only Paul confirmed this.ABOUT Chuck BrownmanA mostly-retired (and hopefully recovering) attorney, Chuck Brownman now enjoys writing noir fiction, concentrating on short fiction. His work has been published in several anthologies and on multiple websites, including those listed at the top of this episode. He has also served various times as a judge for the Mystery Writers of America Edgar Awards. When not writing fiction, Chuck continues to advise some of the country's most entrepreneurial energy and natural resource companies. He is also an Adjunct Professor of Law, and has spoken at legal seminars for many years. He lives with his wife in Colorado, the peaceful vistas offering a counterbalance to his suspenseful and often bloody crime fiction.

Pull up a chair, pour yourself something strong, and brace for a journey into one of Hammer Films' most unusual and underrated horror classics. This week on the Scary Spirits podcast, Greg continues his ambitious quest to watch and review every Hammer Horror film by turning his attention to the dark and atmospheric 1962 British cult classic, The Damned. Joining him is Karen as they dive headfirst into a film that blends Hammer Horror, science fiction, Cold War paranoia, and youthful rebellion into a chilling cinematic experience unlike anything else in the studio's legendary catalog. Directed by Joseph Losey and featuring unforgettable performances, The Damned remains a fascinating hidden gem that deserves far more attention from horror fans and classic film enthusiasts alike. Naturally, no visit to the darker corners of cinema would be complete without a properly wicked drink in hand. As they unravel the mysteries of the film, Karen and Greg sip on the specially crafted “Souls of the Damned” cocktail, a hauntingly delicious creation inspired by the movie’s unsettling themes and eerie atmosphere. In the spirit of the late Oliver Reed, expect bold opinions, lively conversation, and a healthy appreciation for cinema that dares to be strange, dangerous, and unforgettable. Whether you’re a devoted Hammer Films collector, a fan of classic British horror movies, or simply curious about one of the studio’s most unique productions, this episode offers a spirited exploration of a film that still casts a long shadow more than sixty years after its release. Raise a glass, step into the darkness, and join Scary Spirits as they uncover the secrets of The Damned and toast the restless souls trapped within. Souls of the Damned Cocktail • gin• tonic water• fresh lemon• fresh lime• popping candy• ice cubes Instructions: Ahead of serving this, dilute a few drops of blue food colouring with water, then freeze in an ice cube tray. When you're ready to serve the cocktail, mix 1 part gin with 2 parts tonic water in a cocktail shaker. Add lots of ice and shake vigorously for a few seconds. Fill a glass with the blue ice cubes (which you've frozen in advance), then strain the gin and tonic into the glass, over the ice. Add a squeeze of fresh lime juice and stir gently. Garnish with a fresh wedge of lemon and a skewered piece of lemon peel. For the final surprise touch, top with a generous sprinkle of popping candy just before serving. Source: thecraftygentleman.net A Brief Synopsis: An American visiting England falls in love with the sister of a sadistic motorbike gang leader, who drives them away with his threats. The pair retreat to a hideaway in a dank cave beneath a military base, where a group of strange, abandoned children become their surrogate family. However, the children hide a grim and fatal secret. Some of the topics discussed and highlights of this episode include: Radiation paranoia and the Cuban Missile Crisis are discussed. Karen tells us about the song “Black Leather Rock” which features prominently in this film. We learn why siblings should not marry. What are the symptoms of exposure to massive radiation?

There is a lot of conversation right now about funding for cancer research and possible cuts to research projects that will improve our understanding and treatment of breast cancer. I'm pleased to be joined today by two researchers who are sharing their perspectives on the inextricable link between grant funding and sustained research. Dr. Benjamin Schrank is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, and Dr. Donald McDonnell is the Glaxo-Wellcome Distinguished Professor of Molecular Cancer Biology at Duke University School of Medicine. Dr. McDonnell is a well-established researcher whose work focuses on developing new drugs to treat metastatic breast cancer. Dr. Schrank is early in his research career and focused on harnessing the body's immune system to improve response to treatments for metastatic breast cancer. Both recently received research grants from Susan G. Komen to support their innovative work that will help improve breast cancer care and patient outcomes.

You can detect radiation in seconds. Understanding what it does to the human body can take far longer. This gap defines a leading challenge of radiation biology, the field that studies how radiation interacts with living systems. In this episode, Dr. Marc Mendonca, Associate Vice President of Research at the University of Central Florida, joins host Dr. Arun Seraphin to discuss what problems radiobiologists are attempting to solve, and how these problems shape the realities of warfighters, first responders, cancer patients, astronauts, and civilians. The conversation highlights persistent limits in assessing how much radiation an individual has actually absorbed, how their body will respond, and why so many sectors rely on better understanding these effects. It also examines the operational strain created by the “walking well” in mass exposure scenarios. Mendonca outlines key research gaps in the field, including radiation's influence on the immune system, the mechanisms behind radiation-induced cancer, the need for effective post-exposure mitigation, and the development of faster, field-ready diagnostic tools.

In this episode of fire fundamentals we sit down with Professor Simo Hostikka from Aalto University to cover radiation in fires, both from the angle of physical phenomena and ways to model it. In this episode we cover following topics: feel less mysterious, from blackbody basics and role of radiation actually does inside the CFD N-S equation. Spectrum and emissivity to real engineering outcomes like heat flux, tenabilityRadiation's two roles in fire CFD: target heat flux and the gas energy source term Emission versus absorption and why Kirchhoff's law is spectral, not just a single number Spectrum intuition using Planck, Wien's law, and why T to the fourth explodes heat flux View factors as a hazard mental model for layers, panels, and distance effects Why gases are strongly non-gray while soot often looks smooth and easier to approximate How FDS uses the finite angle method, why 104 directions exists, and how updates are staged in time, how to manage spatial and temporal resolution of the radiation Ray effect and numerical diffusion, when you can see the error and when you cannot Other radiation models such as Monte Carlo, and when they are worth it.----The Fire Science Show is produced by the Fire Science Media in collaboration with OFR Consultants.

Welcome to the Komen Health Equity Revolution series on Real Pink — where patients, advocates, researchers and community partners come together to talk honestly about what's standing in the way of breast health equity, and what we're doing to change it. June is Pride Month — a time to celebrate identity, community and the courage it takes to live authentically. Today's conversation sits right at the heart of that. Because advocating for yourself, knowing your body and refusing to be dismissed, that's not just a health message. That's a love letter to who you are. Our guest today is Shelby Smith. She was 30 years old when she noticed something felt off. No family history of breast cancer. Young, healthy, going about her life as a wife and mom to a 7-year-old daughter. But she trusted herself — and that decision changed everything. Shelby faced a 12-centimeter tumor, a bilateral mastectomy, 16 rounds of chemo and 15 rounds of radiation. She did her own research, built her own notebook, asked her own questions — and came out the other side with a message she wants every young woman to hear: Know your normal. And when something doesn't feel right, advocate for yourself. Key Takeaways: Trust your instincts when something feels off Self-advocacy can change outcomes Being informed helps patients navigate treatment Cancer can affect more than physical health Including loved ones in the journey matters Chapters 00:00 Introduction: Shelby's Breast Cancer Story 02:07 Discovering a Lump and Seeking Answers 04:37 Diagnosis, Testing, and Receiving the News 10:07 Research, Self-Advocacy, and Navigating Treatment 17:33 Identity, Family, and Talking to Her Daughter 24:46 Life After Treatment and Advice for Young Women Learn more at realpink.komen.org and komen.org Real Pink, by Susan G.

Radiation therapy is a powerful and non-invasive tool in the management of small cell lung cancer (SCLC), but radiation oncologists are not always fully integrated into the care team. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Charles B. Simone, II, MD, FASTRO, FACRO, FACR, chief medical officer of the New York Proton Center and radiation oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, about strategies to improve collaboration between radiation and medical oncology. He discusses some of the biggest barriers and greatest rewards of enhancing this partnership and expanding access to radiation therapy for SCLC. Guest: Charles B. Simone, II, MD, FASTRO, FACRO, FACR Research Professor and Chief Medical Officer New York Proton Center Radiation Oncologist Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center New York, NY "While we don't have large, randomized trials really telling us how the modalities should be sequenced, that really should be a discussion and personalized for each patient." —Charles B.

A breast cancer diagnosis may feel like it changes your entire life in an instant, but it doesn't get to define who you are or make all your choices for you. On today's episode of Real Pink, we're joined by Amanda Sangemino, a remarkable young woman whose diagnosis came at an age when cancer was likely the last thing on her mind. What began with a concern that was initially dismissed ultimately led her to trust her instincts, advocate for herself, and make a series of personal decisions about her treatment and future. Throughout the process, she was determined not to let fear and cancer make every decision for her. Today, she'll talk about the choices that she made about fertility, surgical options and maintaining an active lifestyle and why trusting yourself can be one of the most powerful tools you have. Key Takeaways: Mindset can play a powerful role during treatment Trust your instincts and advocate for yourself Maintaining normalcy can be empowering Don't let cancer make every decision for you A strong support system makes a difference Chapters: 00:00 – Amanda's Breast Cancer Story Begins 01:28 – Finding a Lump and Receiving a Misdiagnosis 04:22 – Seeking a Second Opinion and Getting Answers 07:00 – Why Self-Advocacy Matters for Young Women 10:00 – Fertility, Menopause, and Treatment Decisions 14:43 – Choosing Surgery, Staying Active, and Building Support 23:09 – Amanda's Final Advice Learn more at realpink.komen.org and komen.org Real Pink, by Susan G.

How do you feel about mammograms? Have you had one? More than one? Or, are you feeling guilty or reckless for not getting one yet? Conventional medical dogma is definitely to get regular mammograms. Mammograms are our first line of defense against breast cancer. You probably personally know someone who has encouraged you to get a mammogram because a mammogram discovered cancer in them or someone they love, and they want to make sure you're taking care of your health by getting screened before it's too late. We're very indoctrinated that mammograms save lives. Too bad they don't.https://auria.care/science coupon code: drjenn20U.S. QT imaging locations: https://www.qtimaging.com/locations/ Dr Jenn Simmons' Podcast episodes:11, 34, 64, 96, 125, 142, 144Cochrane report on mammographic screeningBoobs: The War on Breasts Documentary by Megan SmithArticle in the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine to an article called “Mammography Screening is Harmful and Should be Abandoned.”Are you ready to give your cells their best chance to not have to stop living before they die by allowing them access to physiologic levels of hormones, but aren't sure how to even get started?

How can targeted liver radiation unlock surgical or transplant options for tough hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases? In this episode of BackTable 2026 HCC Creator Weekend™ host Dr. Kavi Krishnasamy is joined by interventional radiologists Dr. Beau Toskich and Dr. Chris Malone to explore how downstaging and radiation lobectomy with Y-90 are creating new surgical and transplant opportunities for patients with limited future liver remnants. They discuss Y-90's role as a “test of time” for tumor biology, strategies to prevent post-hepatectomy liver failure, and the ongoing challenge of recurrence even after R0 resection in cirrhotic livers. --- Get the BackTable apphttps://www.backtable.com/app --- This podcast is supported by an educational grant from Sirtex and Boston Scientific. --- Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction01:31 - Rad Lobectomy Goals and Case Discussion06:09 - Selective vs Lobar Dosing07:51 - PVE Versus Y9009:35 - Downstaging to Transplant13:03 - Patient Selection Factors19:22 - Radseg vs. Lobar Strategy22:12 - Percent Liver Treated Debate26:38 - Particle Density and Catheter Bias28:04 - Downstaging Evidence MERIT LT36:20 - Operating After Y9041:25 - Hypertrophy Timing and Readiness43:03 - Wrap Up --- More about this episode The discussion features a case of massive right-lobe HCC in a non-cirrhotic patient, with stepwise Y-90 dosing and selective retreatment leading to complete response and marked liver hypertrophy.

Today on National Cancer Survivor's Day, we're joined by a remarkable performer whose strength, vulnerability, and resilience have inspired millions around the world. She has taken the stage as a backup vocalist for numerous top artists and most recently dazzled the crowds on the biggest tour in music history with global superstar Taylor Swift. However, audiences were moved even more deeply when she chose to publicly share something far more personal – her breast cancer journey. After Jeslyn Gorman's diagnosis become known through The Eras Tour docuseries, fans witnessed the emotional reality of navigating cancer while stepping away from a career and community she loves so deeply. From continuing to tour in the early days of diagnosis, to facing treatment side effects and returning to the stage immediately following treatment, her story is one of courage, grace and resilience. Today, Jeslyn opens up about the support she received, what survivorship looks like now and most importantly, shares an empowering message for young women about listening to their bodies, advocating for their health, and never underestimating the importance of early detection.

You little podcasts are going to have your bodies ripped in half. Welcome to our last episode of Mystery May this year, where the game we play is decided by dice roll. This time around, fate has deemed it necessary for us to play the Earthbound Halloween Hack, which is notorious for a few reasons, most notably being that it was created by Toby Fox who would later go on to develop Undertale. However, the games share little in common and even the writing doesn't quite hit the same mark (and in some cases falls exceedingly short), but you can tell in the spirit of the whole thing as well as in the art and music, which were mostly also done by Fox where they weren't borrowed from the original game. The game's difficulty is also ramped up within the hack, requiring a truly awful amount of grinding for the average player, so I do think the audience for this is limited, though there is a creative idea here that is expanded on in a fairly interesting way. We're going to be talking about the creative elements of this game and its novel setup, the nature of romhacking and how it even came to be, and then we went and drank some beer and banged some chicks. Hell yeah. Thank you for joining us again this week! This whole month has been interesting game after interesting game and for very different reasons each time, so while maybe we didn't play a whole lot that we outright loved, it sure sated our curiosity a good bit. How much did you know about this game on a scale of “this is the first time I've heard of Earthbound” up to “I edit the Toby Fox wikia”? Let us know over on our Discord or in the comments below! I fell probably somewhere around the high “knew Toby Fox used to go by Radiation online” range and still didn't get exactly what I was expecting out of this. Next time, we're going to finally do some regular episodes for the summertime and up first is Donkey Kong Bananza, so we hope you'll join us then!
Behind the brick walls of the Fernald State School in Massachusetts, thousands of children, many poor, disabled, or simply unwanted, were warehoused for decades under the guise of “care” and “education.” Inside, they endured overcrowding, abuse, neglect, and secret radiation experiments in which boys were fed radioactive oatmeal and tracked like lab animals, all so researchers and corporate sponsors could collect data they never consented to give. The school marketed itself as a place of opportunity, but for many of the children trapped there, Fernald was a closed world of humiliation and exploitation that only much later would be exposed as a hidden crime scene masquerading as a classroom.
"Radiation therapy is often extremely well tolerated in colorectal cancer. Technology has really changed things. But location of the tumor can affect side effects, such as radiation dermatitis. If a patient has a low-lying tumor, if it's less than six centimeters from the anal verge, the patient is likely to have some skin reaction. It's good to be proactive if that's the case," ONS member Lorraine Drapek, DNP, FNP-BC, AOCNP®, nurse practitioner in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about radiation side effects in colorectal cancer.

Highlights From This Episode "In recent years, there has been more nonsurgical management of rectal cancer, especially in what we call the low-lying population. This is the population of patients who would likely end up with a permanent colostomy because their cancer is so low in terms of being close to or involving the anal verge. There is now a regimen where these patients can get their chemotherapy followed by their chemoradiation and then be monitored on close surveillance without surgery." TS 2:23 "Another assessment would be to assess what effects have they had from their chemotherapy that they're bringing with them. FOLFOX-based treatment is commonly used, and the platinum therapy oxaliplatin often causes peripheral neuropathy. What is the patient having? What are those symptoms like? Are they having peripheral neuropathy? If they are that is likely not going to get better or improve during their whole course of radiation. In fact, sometimes when oxaliplatin therapy stops, the peripheral neuropathy can get worse as patients are going through other treatments." TS 5:42 "If the patient has a low-lying tumor, if it's less than six centimeters from the anal verge, the patient is likely to have some skin reaction. It's good to be proactive if that's the case. And then proactively minimizing radiation dermatitis effects, such as keeping the area clean, good washing of the area, and prophylactically starting them on or having someone start them on steroid creams a couple of times a day to minimize that radiation dermatitis effect in the long run." TS 7:25 "I have a sexual health clinic for women with these effects. It's very important as nurses that if you can develop the comfort to ask patients about their sexual activity—it's hard, but it really needs to be done. And I will tell you that the healthcare providers are not doing it. They don't have time, and like us as nurses, we don't get this in school, and neither do they. The other providers don't get it in school either, but it's important. Patients are getting more and more worried about their sexual health. They're coming to us at a younger age, and this is really, really important to address." TS 15:35 "I would say that working with your advanced practice providers and education for advanced practice providers has definitely been focusing on [sexual health] more. Your PAs and your NPs—I think they're going to have the ears and the wherewithal to be able to be your allies and colleagues in this. By and large, it's my APP colleagues and nursing that I talk to the most about this. … Again, it's not an easy thing to bring forward, having dilators in place. But I will tell you in the department that I work in, it was me and couple of nurses who pushed this issue with the physicians for two years and finally got it put in place. It can be done. There's a lot more centers out there doing that." TS 21:51
This episode originally aired in November 2023. When someone has metastatic breast cancer, it is scary for them - and for you! What can you do to really help? What should you say? Is it better to just listen? Today's guest received a de novo metastatic diagnosis in January 2021 and then elected to retire early from a 30-year technology sales career in order to slow life down and to focus on family, friends and thriving with MBC. Carlee Dixon's surprise diagnosis also inspired her to learn as much as possible about breast cancer and take every opportunity to educate friends and acquaintances about breast cancer prevention and the day to day reality. Today, Carlee is here to shed some light on how to best support those who are living with metastatic breast cancer.
In this episode of Precision and Progress: Radiotherapy in Oncology, hosts Hirsch Matani, MD, and Elizabeth Zhang-Velten, MD, PhD, welcomed Binh T. Ngo, MD, to discuss the evolving role of radiation, systemic therapy, and multidisciplinary care for patients with melanoma and other skin cancers.Dr Matani is a clinical assistant professor of radiation oncology at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California (USC) and a radiation oncologist at the USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center. Dr Zhang-Velten is a radiation oncologist and a clinical assistant professor with Keck Medicine of USC. Dr Ngo is an assistant professor of dermatology at Keck Medicine of USC.In their discussion, Drs Matani, Zhang-Velten, and Ngo broke down how surgical approaches, radiation, and systemic therapy all play roles in the treatment of patients with skin cancer. Dr Ngo highlighted key prevention strategies that patients should be advised on, along with recommended follow-ups for patients who are at higher risk or those who underwent prior solid organ or hematologic transplants.The trio also discussed how the use of radiation for patients with skin cancer varies from techniques used for patients with tumors located within deeper organs, and they also highlighted how radiotherapy approaches could be applied for patients with tumors that would be difficult to surgically resect.
There is a house in Auburn, California, with a tragic history and a new tenant. Jean Averaud has come from New Orleans with money, with books, with a beautiful mute woman who watches him with eyes full of something between devotion and dread. He has come with a theory about evil — not the Devil, not sin, not the ordinary darkness of human nature, but evil as a cosmic force, a radiation from a black sun somewhere in the depths of space.And he has come with a purpose. In the old Larcom house, with its history of sorrow and disaster, he has found exactly the conditions he needs. His neighbour, a novelist, finds himself drawn into Averaud's orbit. Clark Ashton Smith's The Devotee of Evil is a quiet story. It does not rush. It thinks. And what it thinks about has been troubling philosophers and theologians for two thousand years. The Devotee of Evil was first published in Smith's self-produced chapbook The Double Shadow and Other Fantasies in 1933, after failing to find a commercial publisher. It reappeared in Stirring Science Stories in February 1941. Clark Ashton Smith (1893–1961) was a California poet, painter, sculptor and writer of weird fiction, one of the central figures of the Weird Tales circle alongside H.P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard, with whom he maintained a long correspondence.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-classic-ghost-stories-podcast--7002956/support.*To buy my paperback books:* https://books.by/tony-walker-booksThe Classic Ghost Stories Newsletter — short essays on the genre, odd discoveries, and recommendations.

It's Women's Health Month — which means a lot of awareness messaging and a lot of conversation about why women's health matters. But today, we're going a level deeper. Because awareness doesn't save lives. Action does. Infrastructure does. Investment does. And honest conversations about why the system isn't working equally for everyone — those matter too. My guest today is Jenica Patterson — a neuroscientist turned health systems architect who is doing the hard work of figuring out why women's health is so chronically underinvested and what it will take to fix it. She leads the Women's Health Network at the Milken Institute, one of the most powerful cross-sector coalitions in this space. Before that, she built a $113 million federal program at ARPA-H (the Advanced Research Project Agency for Health) specifically designed to fast track innovation in women's health. Komen is focused on breast health access — and the sobering reality that where you live and what you look like still determine whether you get a timely mammogram, an accurate diagnosis or the best possible care. Jenica has the research, the relationships and the conviction to tell us exactly why that is — and what's possible. Key Takeaways: Women's health inequities are systemic, not individual. Nearly 30% of U.S. counties do not have a mammography machine. Women's health has historically been underrepresented in research and clinical development. Innovation alone is not enough without integration. Momentum in women's health is growing.

"When you have benign conditions, we're actually treating 3 gray, so a significant difference [versus doses of 60 gray for brain cancer]. Typically, when you treat at a high dose, the goal is to destroy tissue, like cancer tissue or cancer cells. But when we give a low dose, the goal is actually to modulate inflammation. And what it does is it slows down those inflammatory cells or those cells that release the chemicals that cause pain and inflammation," Amanda Meyer, DNP, APRN, CNP, family nurse practitioner in the Department of Radiation Oncology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about radiation therapy for noncancer indications.

Highlights From This Episode "We always typically think of it as cancer treatment, but we can use radiation for noncancerous conditions, as well. And radiation was actually used for benign diseases right after the discovery of x-rays. By the 1920s it was used a lot for different types of musculoskeletal, dermatologic issues, and different types of inflammatory conditions. And over time, since the 1920s, we've actually really gotten a really good understanding of it." TS 1:37 "When we're looking at what are good candidate characteristics, we do typically like older patients, so patients over the age of 65. And the rationale behind that is we know that there is a potential for a secondary risk of a skin cancer about 20 to 30 years after getting low-dose radiation, like a basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer. The older the patient is, the less likely they are to have any adverse effects from that." TS 8:22 "When we do the low-dose radiation, they've tried other measures that haven't been successful. However, we don't want a patient who is so severe that they're ready for surgery, when they're bone on bone, because we know that radiation isn't as effective when they are that severe. So there's this sweet window where low-dose radiation works best in these patients." TS 9:39 "When we're treating with a little bit higher dose for like a Dupuytren's or a Ledderhose, because it's an anti-proliferative dose, those patients, they do get more skin redness, more dry skin. That's very temporary, and it resolves within a week or two after treatment. But really, we don't see any acute side effects. The long-term side effect of the radiation-induced malignancy, again, is a very low—0.05% according to some of the European guidelines." TS 12:34 "I really wish people appreciated how interdisciplinary this is. We need to get referrals from family medicine and from primary care and internal medicine and pain medicine physicians and inflammatory physicians and podiatry and pain specialists. And we really need to use this multidisciplinary approach to get earlier referrals for patients because there is this sweet window of time where low-dose radiation works the best." TS 18:40
Exploding Black Holes, Lunar Mysteries, and Cosmic Questions In this enlightening Q&A edition of Space Nuts, hosts Andrew Dunkley and Professor Jonti Horner tackle an array of fascinating questions from listeners. From the enigmatic nature of supercharged neutrinos linked to black holes to the mysteries of the Moon's surface, this episode is a deep dive into the cosmos.Episode Highlights:- Supercharged Neutrinos and Black Holes: Nick's intriguing question about the detection of a supercharged neutrino prompts a discussion on the theoretical concept of exploding black holes and Hawking radiation. Jonti explains the complexities of black hole evaporation and the potential implications for our understanding of the universe.- The Dark Side of the Moon: Andrew returns with her questions about the far side of the Moon, exploring why it appears less damaged than the near side. Jonti provides insights into the Moon's geological history and the differences in surface features that contribute to this phenomenon.- Shallow Craters on the Moon: Continuing with Andrew's inquiries, the hosts discuss the nature of lunar craters and why many appear shallower than expected. Jonti elaborates on the processes that lead to complex craters and their unique characteristics compared to simpler ones.- Planet Formation and Solar System Dynamics: Eli's two-part question leads to a discussion about the composition of planets in our solar system and how their formation relates to the elements present in the Sun. The hosts delve into the nuances of planetary formation and the role of distance from the Sun in determining a planet's composition.- Speed of the Solar System: Eli's second question prompts an exploration of how fast our solar system could travel without causing noticeable effects on Earth. Jonti explains the implications of high speeds in a dense stellar environment and how it might alter our cosmic perspective.For more Space Nuts, including our continuously updating newsfeed and to listen to all our episodes, visit our website.
