Although women are the fastest growing group of veterans across all military branches, there are limited data about mammography screening utilization in female veterans. Using a nationally representative cross-sectional survey, we evaluated the association between veteran status and mammography screening.
We scan the top radiology sources so you don’t have to.
From AI breakthroughs to imaging trends, we serve up real-time radiology insights.

Low endothelial shear stress is associated with increased coronary atherosclerotic plaque activity in patients that presented with acute coronary syndrome
Both coronary atherosclerotic plaque activity and low endothelial shear stress (ESS) are predictive of adverse cardiovascular events. We aimed to investigate their association and relationship with high-risk plaque features.

Rationale and design of the CT-STEMI study (Cardiac Computed Tomography for comprehensive risk stratification of arrhythmic, atherothrombotic and heart failure events following reperfused ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction)
ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality, with survivors facing high risk of heart failure, recurrent ischemia, and arrhythmias. Risk stratification traditionally relies on echocardiography, while cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is the most effective tool for predicting adverse outcomes. However, its routine use is limited by accessibility, cost, and logistical constraints. Recently, cardiac computed tomography (CCT) has evolved from an…

Sustainability of Rideshare Programs to Promote Engagement of Underrepresented Populations in Breast Cancer Screening Trials.
Transportation barriers significantly limit participation in breast cancer screening trials among Hispanic women, exacerbating disparities in breast cancer outcomes and underrepresentation in clinical research. Rideshare programs have emerged as a potential solution, but their long-term sustainability remains underexplored. Understanding sustainability capacity is critical to ensuring these programs can address structural barriers, promote health equity, and improve outcomes for underserved popu…

Multiple Lenses on Breast Imaging in Diverse Settings: Implications for Practice, Policy, and Research
Breast cancer is the leading cause of death from cancer worldwide and is the most common cancer. According to The World Health Organization, “health equity is defined as the absence of unfair and avoidable or remediable differences in health among population groups defined socially, economically, demographically, or geographically.”Achieving health equity can address disparities in all arenas of medicine, including access to breast imaging and improving breast cancer outcomes. Thus, it is import…
