💗 Today is #NationalMammographyDay, a great day to get smart about being dense. Is a mammogram enough? If you have dense breasts you may need additional screening. Learn about the full spectrum of screening options here.: densebreast-info.org/screening-te...

On Metastatic Breast Cancer Awareness Day, we're sharing this article from National World with DBI EU Education Coordinator Cheryl Cruwys. Two stories. Two outcomes. One message: Women deserve to know their breast density. Thank you for your advocacy 💚💗. www.nationalworld.com/opinion/brea...

For #BCAM, know the "rule of 40s": start mammography at age 40 for 40% reduction in risk of death due to #breastcancer and easier treatments. For the 40% of women with #densebreasts, 40% of cancers are missed on mammography and adding MRI helps; US if MRI not possible. @densebreastinfo.bsky.social
