I am excited to have Dr. Yvonne Karney with me today for the second part of a two-part series where we focus on breast imaging options and the importance of informed consent. Last week, we discussed the limitations of current breast screening options. Today, in Part 2, we outline the future of breast imaging, beyond mammograms, to explore QT imaging and its impact on breast health. How to be proactive about your breast screening options: Ask your provider to explain all available imaging choices- not just mammograms Consider your personal comfort, risk tolerance, and medical history when making a choice Think about whether you would prefer to avoid unnecessary procedures (like biopsies) or prioritize immediate detection If your provider will not answer your questions, find one who will. Informed consent is your right.
