#DenseBreastDay a Huge Success!

October 11, 2021 by JoAnn Pushkin

The Sept 28th online education day, organized in conjunction with Yale Medicine, resulted in engagement with tens of thousands around the globe (more details here). The social media event included strong participation from European advocates and health organizations. Many thanks to all for participating in the day and sharing DBI resources.

 Medical Advisory Board News

  • DBI Medical Advisory Board members Drs. Paula Gordon and Jean Seely advocate for updates to Canadian breast screening guidelines in the news segment: ‘Outdated’ breast cancer screening guidelines failing Canadian women: report. The story highlights a report on breast density “inform” and inconsistent breast screening practices issued by advocacy organization Dense Breasts Canada.
  • Congratulations to Dr. Georgia Spear who has been promoted to Clinical Associate Professor of Radiology with the University of Chicago!
