Thank you @AlexKennedyNL @CBCNL for the interview and helping get the action needed in NL Women falling through the cracks as N.L. lags on breast screening changes, advocate says | CBC News cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
Quebec’s #BreastCancer screening policies are failing women. The province lags behind in adopting crucial practices that could save lives, by @jenniedale24 @annieslight7 montrealgazette.com/opinion/opinio… via @mtlgazette @densebreastscdn
"The Ontario Association of Radiologists strongly supports the Ontario government's decision to expand access to breast cancer screening by lowering the self-referral age to 40. This important step will connect more women to timely and essential mammogram services, significantly…
Last year, our government made a historic announcement to lower the age of eligibility for self-referral for publicly funded mammograms. Starting today, if you are over the age of 40, you can self-refer for a mammogram and access the care you need sooner. news.ontario.ca/en/release/100…

In 1988, women in BC were sent a letter when they turned 40 encouraging them to start having mammograms. But that stopped many years ago. Now only about 25% of eligible women 40-49 attend. Time to resume sending those letters! vancouversun.com/news/local-new… via @VancouverSun
academic.oup.com/jbi/article/6/… Published! The benefits to organizations having more women in radiology include financial viability and greater collaboration, job satisfaction, and engagement. More women leaders in radiology leads to more women in radiology @uOttawaRad @CanadaSBI
And so it begins !!

Most women in 🇨🇦 are only offered screening every-other- year. So they don’t have the opportunity for detection of their cancers as early as possible.
Odds of late-stage #breastcancer diagnosis double when women put off annual breast cancer screening. healthimaging.com/topics/medical…
For a long time I pinned the language guide here but I learned about this tool kit this morning for addressing #lungcancer stigma. Including context, images, as well as language makes it easy to apply across various media. nlcrt.org/lcs-cat/
Please stop spending what I presume to be tax payers $ to run these campaigns of misinformation that are contributing to later staged cancer diagnoses. #cdnpoli #screen40 #40not50
In the US, women with cancer who have dense breasts have MRIs. In 🇨🇦, many women whose cancers were missed on their mammograms, are still told that all they need for surveillance is a mammogram.
I found the tumour myself in April 2023 after receiving 'normal' mammo results in March. My breasts are category C density - still not a priority for supplemental screening in Manitoba, even after diagnosis. Keep up with Breast Self Exams! #mbpoli
Watch me have my mammogram in real time. It’s not as scary as you think. In some parts of the UK only 1/3 women are going for their screening. What can we do to raise awareness? @BreastCancerNow @lorraine @loosewomen
Lead author on a recent study, @JeanSeely, is seeing that breast cancer rates are increasing in women as young as their 20's. "But what really surprised me was the extent of the increase." cbc.ca/news/canada/ot…
This doesn't surprise me at all based on the amount of requests I get weekly to speak to newly diagnosed patients. This is extremely concerning and why we need earlier screenings. @markhollandlib @YaaraSaks @lisahepfner #cdnpoli #screen40 #40not50

📣Here's hoping that @WabKinew will roll up his sleeves for Manitoba breast cancer screening updates soon! #screen40 #KnowYourDensity #FindItEarly #mbpoli @densebreastscdn @my_screening Keep up the great work and the healthcare momentum! Miigwech!
The full press conference, hosted by @MPJulian on @cantaskforce, incl. full statements by experts in prostate, lung and breast cancer as well as questions from the press… It is time for reform. Canadians deserve better care. #cdnpoli @markhollandlib youtu.be/BX1bI2KwMCI?si…
Why does @cantaskforce need to be reformed, @markhollandlib? Because @deverynross needed our medical system to do better. #cdnpoli Read it here 👇
Outdated guidelines putting lives at risk – Brandon Sun brandonsun.com/opinion/2024/0… via @thebrandonsun Thanks for sharing your personal story, @deverynross While stats are critical to understanding disease, screening is not academic exercise. Those “numbers” are humans. #cdnpoli
10 medical specialties & patients have joined, speaking out about the harms to Canadians from @cantaskforce guidelines. Read about the Coalition for Responsible Healthcare Guidelines: Current screening guidelines are risking lives | Healthing.ca healthing.ca/partners/coali…
Breast cancer is a horrific disease. The process being used to create the 2024 breast screening guidelines is highly flawed. Cdn women are suffering and dying needlessly. Demand our government protect Canadians. Please take one minute & add your voice densebreastscanada.ca/add-your-voice/
"loses cancer care access" and 'Ontario' Name a more devastatingly grim duo & reality for so, so many people in this province. Whether before, during or after diagnosis, we need to do better across all jurisdictions & levels Addition by subtraction #postalcodemedicine indeed!
