Week in Review: Delaying breast cancer screening | SCCT 2024 coverage | SalaryScan

When making a difficult decision, it can be helpful to review the pros and cons to make an informed choice. However, for some women reaching their 40s, that information may lead to a decision to delay breast cancer screening, according to a recent study.

When provided with a decision aid and a personal breast cancer risk estimate, more women often elected to hold off on receiving screening mammography. What else did the researchers find? Get all of the details in our top story of the week.

Meanwhile, the annual meeting of the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography (SCCT) is in full swing in Washington, DC. We’ve published reports so far on how AI can predict major adverse cardiac events on CCTA, the factors affecting the use of coronary artery calcium scans, and the performance of photon-counting CT in identifying obstructive coronary stenosis.

Stay tuned for continuing coverage of SCCT 2024 over the coming days.
