June 6th - PART 1 Is breast cancer being over diagnosed?

Doug Talks About: Is breast cancer being over diagnosed?

A few months ago, the medical website, WebMD stated that breast cancer rates rose by 1% annually from 2012 to 2021, with even greater increases among women under age 50 and a startling jump even among women in their 20s. We are sorely losing the war on cancer, yet we have a strange hunger to diagnose even more cases. in 2023, medical researchers reported that Artificial Intelligence (AI) supported mammogram screening increases breast cancer detection by 20%. Simply type “breast cancer overdiagnoses” into pubmed.gov and over 900 research papers can be studied. This is a big problem, it is not limited to breast cancer, and I believe it will grow. On Friday, from noon-1PM Central Time, Dr John Gonino, a local physician will introduce us to two breast cancer patients and teach us what he is doing to assist them. Please don’t miss this special event where you are encouraged to ask questions and/or comment on the show. If a loved one is suffering from cancer, please ask them to join us at noon (Central Time) tomorrow. - Doug
