Are there psychological consequences due to the delay of diagnostic mammograms after an initial abnormal screening for women in Cook County, Illinois? $49.99 In Cook County, IL, there is a significant disparity in access to public health care services between under insured and insured women who use Stroger Hospital. This is especially evident in the difference in the amount of time it takes for women to receive a diagnostic mammogram after an initial abnormal screening mammogram. In October 2006, the approximate number for women waiting to get an appointment for a mammogram at the public hospital was 12,000 women. Seven thousand of these women were waiting for screening mammograms while the remaining 5,000 women were waiting up to twelve months for a diagnostic mammogram (Ganschaw, personal communication, October 2007). Out of these 12,000 women some were breast cancer survivors waiting for their regular checkups; for others, the standard screening mammography was inconclusive, and they were waiting to take more definitive diagnostic tests. One potential consequence of this backlog and waiting for a diagnosis is a negative psychological impact for the women who experience this delay. The hypothesis of this paper is that a potential consequence of waiting for a diagnostic mammogram and a subsequent diagnosis is negative psychological effects. In this study, the author attempts to confirm the hypothesis, which has been partially supported by conversations with heath care providers, that symptoms of anxiety and depression increase as a result of the significant delay women experience while waiting for a diagnostic mammogram in Cook County, IL. Additionally, it is hypothesized that women waiting for definitive test results would have increased feelings of anxiety and depression over a control group of women who were not waiting for any type of medical test results. Thirty women were surveyed for the experiment group from local Cook County hospitals with the K6 Scale of Non-Specific Psychological Distress, which was gathered from the literature. Twenty-three control group women were surveyed. The K6 measure consists of six

Baring Your Breast $15.84 Carole Aydell, throughout her career as a mammographer, has heard countless excuses for why women refuse to get mammograms.

Both women and men, from teenagers to adults, will find the information in this book helpful in explaining how to detect breast cancer early and how to ensure their mammograms are positive experiences.

Mammography: Guide to Interpreting, Reporting and Auditing Mammographic Images – Re.Co.R.M. (from Italian Reporting and Codifying t $106.57 Breast cancer screening by mammography has proved to be the only means of reducing mortality from this disease by as much as 30-50% worldwide. However, despite the widespread utilization of screening mammography and the constantly growing number of examinations performed every day, the interpretation of mammograms remains largely subjective and is not even always clear. The current terminology is still far from standardized and is often even inappropriate. This is partly because of a lack of complete knowledge of mammographic signs and how to report them in clear, correct language. The core of this book consists of high-quality images that clearly demonstrate normal breast features and pathologic abnormalities, thus providing essential visual support for radiologists interpreting mammograms.

Recent Advances in Breast Imaging, Mammography, and Computer-Aided Diagnosis of Breast Cancer $128.91 Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer found in women worldwide; approximately 10% of women are confronted with breast cancer in their lives. Breast cancer can be most efficiently treated if detected at an early stage. This book focuses primarily on the application of computer vision for early lesion identification in mammograms and breast-imaging volumes through computer-aided diagnostics (CAD). Color illustrations are included in the text, and an accompanying CD-ROM contains other full-color images.The book is divided into four parts. In Part I, the anatomic, histopathologic, and mammographic views of the breast are examined, and the physics for different breast-imaging modalities are presented. Part II presents techniques for lesion and mass detection, and computer-aided diagnosis. Part III discusses the applications of different computer-vision fields in breast-image registration, and performance evaluation for breast CAD techniques is discussed in Part IV.

Signs in MR-Mammography $138.73 Magnetic resonance mammography (MRM) is opening new avenues in the diagnosis of breast cancer. It has been known for over 20 years that MRM can accurately detect breast cancers larger than 3 millimeters. The problem in recent years has been an international debate concerning methods, techniques, and the interpretation of the myriad images. For years, the phrase: high sensitivity but low specificity, has been used like a mantra to characterize MRM. But results in recent decades suggest that we can greatly increase this limited specificity by extracting and analyzing all of the morphologic and kinetic signs contained in the 1000-plus images from an MRM examination. In this book we will explore the current known signs in MRM and illustrate them with examples so that, in the future, this information can be applied in the practical interpretation of MR mammograms.Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and the leading cause of death in women under age 50. It is hoped that when MRM is interpreted as described in this book, it can help to alleviate this major health problem by allowing breast cancers to be detected and treated at a earlier, curable stage.
