Women’s imaging encompasses many radiology procedures related to women and the diseases that are most prevalent to women such as breast cancer or gynecological issues. Mammogram, breast ultrasound, breast MRI and breast biopsy are the most commonly used procedures.
This latest research further confirms that breast MRI not only detects tumors that mammography cannot, but it also spots invasive cases that pose greater risks to patients.
The case dates to March 2020, when the University of South Florida Foundation filed suit against the Marlborough, Massachusetts-based company, which later countersued.
Such behavior can lead to "increased stress and job dissatisfaction, at the expense of well-being of breast radiologists,” MD Anderson experts wrote in Clinical Imaging.
The Addison, Texas-based company was founded in 1986 and in 2018 sold a majority stake to private equity firm Madison Dearborn Capital Partners, which has pursued rapid expansion.
Few of those polled believe they are at risk of developing the disease, according to new research from the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center.
The “multilevel” intervention involved EHR reminders, patient outreach and navigation to encourage individuals to return following breast or lung imaging.
"The survey created here can be administered by radiology practices to predict when breast radiologists are vulnerable to quitting,” researchers detailed in JACR.
"This was an unneeded burden, which was solely adding to the administrative hassles of medicine," said American Society of Nuclear Cardiology President Larry Phillips.
