Dr. Brem is board-certified in Diagnostic Radiology. She is a Professor of Radiology, the Vice Chair of Radiology, and Director of Breast Imaging & Intervention at The George Washington University School of Medicine & Health Sciences. In this conversation, Dr. Brem shares how to understand your risk for breast cancer and her recommended imaging strategy for those with dense breast tissue. She also emphasizes the importance of co-creating a personalized healthcare plan with a doctor that suits your needs.  Note that other risk factors may influence your individual situation. For a comprehensive understanding, explore additional resources at breastcancer.org/risk/risk-factors .  Cancer in a dense breast is exponentially more difficult to detect in a mammogram, which is why Dr. Brem is a strong advocate for breast ultrasound and/or MRI. In fact, breast imaging specialists can find 25% more cancerous cells with ultrasound screening in women with dense breasts than they can with mammography.  Dr. Brem doesn’t believe in a one-size-fits-all breast healthcare approach. Instead, she urges women to get the knowledge they need to make the right choices for their health and find a doctor that can tailor a plan for their unique needs.  Finally, Dr. Brem shares her hope in the technologies currently in development to help detect cancer before imaging, such as liquid biopsy and breath analysis.  Connect with Sharon Connect with Sharon on LinkedIn: Sharon Kedar Learn more about Innovate and Elevate innovateandelevatepodcast.com Subscribe to Innovate and Elevate on YouTube Join the newsletter to receive the latest episodes in your inbox: Innovate and Elevate Newsletter Connec… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/innovate-and-elevate-6703724/episodes/co-pilot-your-breast-health-with-dr-rachel-brem/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/innovate-and-elevate-6703724/co-pilot-your-breast-health-with-dr-rachel-brem.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
