Discuss Practices can 'recover wisely' from COVID-19
August 13, 2020 -- It's possible for radiology practices to "recover wisely" to pre-COVID-19 imaging volumes, according to a study published August 10 in Academic Radiology. It comes down to close monitoring of data, researchers believe.

Discuss Earlier breast screening shows mortality benefit
August 12, 2020 -- Starting breast cancer screening when women are in their 40s cut the risk of death by 25% at 10 years of follow-up, according to the findings of a study published August 12 in the Lancet Oncology. But the benefits of earlier screening were not statistically significant at later follow-up points.
