This #MammographyMonday, I want to remind everyone just how important it is to get screened for breast cancer. Over 300,000 people were diagnosed last year alone. Early detection truly saves lives. Let’s continue to spread awareness, support, and hope for our communities.

West Michigan, it’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month. If you and your health care provider have decided you are ready for yearly mammograms, I wanted to ask: Have you scheduled your annual mammography? If not, today’s a great day to! Annual screening mammography in average-risk

🚨 Congress must act to fund the NIH in FY26. The President’s budget proposes devastating cuts to biomedical research in radiology. Tell your lawmakers: support the highest possible NIH funding level & protect the future of medicine. 🩻#Radvocacy

📈 A new study in @JACRJournal shows Missouri’s 2019 law expanding mammography coverage boosted screening rates—especially for Medicaid patients—and increased access to 3D mammography. Policy change is saving lives. @amykpatel #BreastCancer #HealthPolicy #Radiology 🔗

The Senate should reconsider student loan program provisions that would make medical and dental education less accessible, exacerbating workforce shortages and jeopardizing patient access to care. https://t.co/jXyV0oSDwn
