University says women should be advised of their Breast Density!!
South Australia Uni says that women SHOULD be advised of their breast density as it has such a bearing on their 'not so early' diagnosis .... https://www.adelaide.edu.au/robinson-research-institut...
To be fair, I am a right Lucy - not happy until I know more than is good for me! The article is clear that women who are told they have dense tissue face costs in establishing their cancer status - so for some, the advice may just cause anxiety that’s not easily fixed. I still think they should know, but I appreciate that there is a problem for BreastScreen if it can’t easily and cheaply provide a better and more informative scan.
