Additional option for earlier detection of breast cancer especially for dense breasted patients


Danna F. Grear, MD a Clinical Breast Radiologist who has been providing imaging services in Northwest Arkansas since 1989 joins eHealth Radio and the Cancer Prevention and Technology Channels.
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels & guest Dr. Danna F. Grear discuss the following:

  • What convinced you to offer ultrasound breast screening to your patients and describe the patient type who should have this examination?
  • What is the SonoCiné AWBUS™ technology and why did you choose to offer this breast screening examination?
  • How is ultrasound different than mammography and why not use ultrasound on all women instead of mammography? 
  • Why don’t all breast facilities offer this type of screening for their dense breasted patients?
  • I understand that there are Breast Density Information Laws that are forcing imaging facilities to tell women if they have dense breast tissue.  Are they working and how do you feel about this?
  • Tell us about the new insurance codes for ultrasound breast screening. What does this mean for dense breasted women and the facilities who offer this supplemental screening?
  • What is your advice to women for protecting their breast health?

Duration: 16:53
