EP119: Dr. Laura Esserman: A New Way Forward for Breast Cancer Prevention. Pioneering Trials and New Data Result in more Effective and Fine-Tuned Care

Blue Soul CHATS™

Tune in to a powerful conversation with Dr. Laura Esserman who is a master surgeon, physician and runs the breast cancer center at UCSF. She speaks to us about outdated systems for prevention and why things need to change both for prevention and treatment. During the past 30 years, most women in the United States have been recommended to have a mammogram every year. Over those same 30 years we have learned so much about the biology of the breast. We now know that women have different levels of risk for breast cancer, and that it is not simply one disease. To counter this issue, she founded WISDOM Study – Women Informed to Screen Depending On Measures of risk, which is testing a personalized approach to screening compared to annual mammograms.
