What if everything you have been told about mammograms is wrong?

In this episode, I sit down again with Dr. Jenn Simmons, founder of PerfeQTion™ Imaging, to break down what QT imaging actually is, why mammograms have no proven survival benefit, and what every woman needs to know about breast cancer screening right now. After a decade of mammograms and two breast cancer scares, I switched to QT scanning two years ago, and I am never going back.

We cover the science behind QT technology, why DCIS is being overtreated, and what you can do today to prevent a breast cancer diagnosis, not just screen for one.

What you will learn:

Why the American College of Physicians says mammograms have no proven survival benefit

How QT imaging differs from traditional ultrasound and MRI

Why DCIS is not cancer and why it is being overtreated

How QT measures doubling time to avoid unnecessary biopsies

What the tears test is and how it detects breast cancer risk at home
