Fantastic news for Women who are identified as having Dense Breasts. The evidence is flooding in. Our Breast Cancer Screening Programme has to adapt and adopt Mandatory Breast Density Reporting BBC Siobhán Freeney Advocate #BreastDensity #LobularBC RTÉ News bbc.com/news/articles/…

“Denying women with dense breasts supplemental screening results in an unconscionable number of undetected cancers and creates a potential for family tragedies in the form of late stage diagnoses” JoAnn Pushkin #TellMeMyBreastDensity auntminnie.com/clinical-news/…

Access to life saving drug treatments should be available to all #Cancer Patients Here's a classic example of our double standard health system where Private Patients can access drugs, denied to Public Patients UCAN IRELAND All-Island Cancer Research Institute (AICRI) michaeltmccarthy

I agree Siobhán Freeney Advocate #BreastDensity #LobularBC. When drug reimbursement fails because it is not a priority, are all of the other obvious deficits equally ‘not a priority’?. Waiting seven weeks to start anti-cancer treatment, for example. Why? Spending 25 minutes in an attempt to identify electronically

Siobhán Freeney Advocate #BreastDensity #LobularBC michaeltmccarthy HSE Ireland National Screening Service Nessa Cosgrove Marie Sherlock TD 100%! I was told “we do not provide that information at present”. But when I spoke to the rep. On the BreastCheck CS number I was told that it was easy information to ascertain quickly from the scan, simply on sight. Ie: you have dense tissue or you don’t…. Seems a huge omission

Update: Submission for Mandatory Breast Density Reporting December 2021 was given by #NSAC to HIQA in March 2023. We've written to HIQA for a further update Nessa Cosgrove #MinisterQuestion #BreastcancerScreening No More Turning a Blind Eye #BreastDensity

To withhold 'SEEN' Information from a Woman about her Breast Cancer Risk is Wrong BUT it's daily practice National Screening Service #BreastCheck Women are demanding to be advised about their Breast Density, as SEEN on their Mammogram Image. Fiona Murphy Suzanne Crowe

Tumour masking and Mammograms going under the radar for way too long while numerous, unaccounted Women sustain unnecessary late stage Breast #Cancer diagnoses. ALL Women screened should be told about their Breast Density and understand the associated Risk.
