Host: Jennifer Caudle, DO

Guest: Emily F. Conant, MD

While screening for breast cancer using digital mammography enables us to detect the cancer earlier when it’s more treatable, it also comes with the risk of false-positives, which cause unneeded fears, anxiety, and even costs to the healthcare system. Could digital breast tomosynthesis minimize that risk and improve cancer detection rates?

Here to discuss this innovative breast imaging test with Dr. Jennifer Caudle is Dr. Emily Conant, Professor of Radiology and Division Chief of Breast Imaging at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.
