The surprising way breast cancer screenings could reveal heart disease A new study finds AI can potentially detect artery calcification in routine mammograms, helping identify women at risk of heart disease, the leading cause of death.

" ... when ppl see a visualization of what’s going on in their arteries, something clicks & they get motivated.'" 2/2 #CanSky

Just a reminder that mammograms aren't that good at detecting #lobular #breastcancer yet, esp w/ #densebreasts. Let's fix that, too!

It’s the Gold Standard of Early Cancer Detection. For 40 Percent of Women, It Doesn’t Work. This is how I ended up in a roomful of women, all massaging our breasts.

She Had a Normal Mammogram. Then She Got Cancer.
About 40 percent of women have dense breast tissue that can hide cancer. Many don’t know what to do about it.

I usually don't sweat these things, its happened before. Why I got baseline #mammogram at age 30. #DenseBreasts then, not anymore, but still every once and a while, go back in for ultrasound. This time that history of regular mammograms gave them comparison to view & know this was nothing of concern

For #BCAM, know the "rule of 40s": start mammography at age 40 for 40% reduction in risk of death due to #breastcancer and easier treatments. For the 40% of women with #densebreasts, 40% of cancers are missed on mammography and adding MRI helps; US if MRI not possible. @densebreastinfo.bsky.social

Diagnosed with 'dense breasts'? You may need more than a mammogram About 40% of women have dense or extremely dense breasts. Online risk assessment tools can help women decide if a breast MRI is a good idea.

I know of at least two women who requested breast MRI after hearing my story on @npr.org and also found their cancer early. I have #DenseBreasts and family history and requested screening MRI in 2014. Treatment was easy. #FindItEarly. #BCAM @densebreastinfo.bsky.social www.npr.org/2025/04/21/n...

I Didn’t Get Why Dense Breasts Mattered Until I Got Cancer at 46 Dense breasts are a cancer risk hiding in plain sight, yet they’re frequently overlooked and underexplained. Knowing whether you have them could save your life.

It's #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth and I just published this piece with @glamour.com about something I didn’t understand until I was diagnosed: #DenseBreasts. Take a moment to check it out or pass it along--knowing this info can literally save lives.
