SUMMARY:Breast density - what does it mean for GPs and their patients?
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nMammographic breast density can be a challenge for general practitioners (GPs) and their patients. High mammographic breast density lowers the sensitivity of breast cancer screening; thereby increasing the risk of an interval cancer between screening episodes\, and moderately increases breast cancer risk. Breast Screen WA is the only Australian state screening program to notify women and their GP when a mammogram shows marked increased breast density (and have been doing so for over 10 years). Women are advised in writing to consult their GP to discuss the significance of their breast density\, to have a clinical examination and receive further advice about their breast cancer risk. \nAt this webinar\, Associate Professor Jennifer Stone will discuss the significance of breast density\, its occurrence\, how to discuss the implications of increased breast density with patients\, and the way forward. \nLearning outcomes\nDiscuss the implications of increased breast density with patients\nDescribe how breast density influences breast cancer risk and\nmammographic sensitivity\nState the supplemental screening recommendations indicated for\npatients with increased breast density\nRecall the ongoing breast density research in Australia \nPresenter\nAssociate Professor Jennifer Stone\, Epidemiologist & Senior ResearchFellow\, University of Western Australia \nRegister HERE. \nDate: Tuesday\, 25 October 2022\nTime: 7.00pm – 8.00pm\nTarget Audience: GPs\, Practice Nurses\nMode of delivery: Zoom. On the morning of the webinar an email will be sent to registered attendees which will contain a link to join the webinar.
