I am excited to have Dr. Yvonne Karney with me for a two-part series focused on breast imaging options and the importance of informed consent. In Part 1 today, we discuss the limitations of current breast screening options and how to protect yourself if you choose to get mammograms or MRIs. We also introduce you to QT Imaging, which is the future of breast imaging. Benefits of early detection: It allows for procedures like lumpectomy instead of extensive surgery Early-stage cancers often require less chemotherapy or radiation Detecting cancer early generally improves the chance of recovery and survival Smaller interventions preserve appearance and more tissue  Early treatment can be quicker, simpler, and less traumatic  Yvonne Karney's Bio: Yvonne Karney is a medical doctor, traditionally trained in gynecology, and a former United States Air Force physician, who converted to integrative medicine when she realized she didn't have the right tools to help her patients achieve true health.  She is the founder of Vitality Renewal Functional Medicine in the Chicago suburbs, where her newest venture is to revolutionize breast imaging by offering an option that has the image quality of MRI WITHOUT radiation, IV contrast, or painful compression.  She's on a mission to give women options for breast imaging and educate them about the risks and benefits of the current breast cancer screening recommendations.  In this episode: How mammograms are pushed without real informed choice The value of early detection   How false positives tend to fuel fear and lead to extra procedures Risks that come with breast compression and radiation How overdiagnosis leads to overtreatment The problems associated with MRIs  How true 3D imaging could change the future of breast screening Links and Resources: Guest Social Media Links: Vitality Renewal Breast Imaging Yvonne Karney on YouTube Yvonne Karney on Instagram Vitality Renewal Functional Medicine  Relative Links for This Show: Try Halo (Salt) Therapy for respiratory and skin health.
