Jasmine Khorsandi, the founder of Sonobreast, is this week’s guest on the Beautiful Grit Podcast. Jasmine is here to discuss a revolutionary approach to breast cancer detection and the limitations of traditional mammograms. Sonobreast focuses on automated breast ultrasound (ABUS), a technology Khorsandi champions as a safer, more effective alternative, especially for women with dense breast tissue.

In the episode you’ll learn about the limitations of mammograms while widely used, are often less effective for women with dense breast tissue, which can obscure potential abnormalities. Dense tissue appears white on mammograms, as do tumors, making detection more challenging.

You’ll also learn about radiation Concerns and the potential harm of repeated radiation exposure from mammograms, particularly for younger women or those with a family history of breast cancer, advocating for less invasive methods.

Jasmine shares about the Role of Automated Breast Ultrasound (ABUS), emphasizing the benefits of ABUS, which uses sound waves to create detailed images of breast tissue without radiation. ABUS is particularly effective for dense breast tissue and offers clearer results, often catching issues missed by mammograms.

And why it is so important to empowering women with choices encouraging you to be proactive in your healthcare, ask questions, and seek alternatives like ABUS if they are concerned about mammogram accuracy or radiation risks.If you would like to learn more about Jasmine Khorsandi’s work with Sonobreast and her advocacy for ABUS is reshaping how breast cancer screening is approached, particularly for women with dense breast tissue, you can visit her website www.sonobreasts.com and Instagram at www.instagram.com/sonobreasts
