Thanks so much @oncodaily.for support, raising awareness of issues like the absence of #BreastDensity reporting. We're calling on the Irish Minister for Health @CarrollJennifer to make Breast Density Reporting Mandatory #WomensHealth .

Delighted to see this. Confident that the Ireland's NSAC will action a similar process for #BreastCheck @NSShse once the current @HIQA evaluation of Submissions for Standardised Breast Density Reporting has been completed @LobularIreland @CosgroveNessa.

"Detecting Cancer Early" .Patient, Surgeon, Researcher, Oncologist, Radiologist, we know the significance of those words. WHY do @NSShse advise Breast Radiologists NOT to tell Women attending #BreastCheck about their RISK FACTOR for developing #BreastCancer ?
