Rates of breast cancer screening participation are comparable for Black & white women but BW less likely to get repeat/annual mmgs and 3D mmgs (ie tomosynthesis). In other words, we need to help Black women come BACK for screening & to ensure their mmgs are high quality. #ASBrS22

Faculty in the US, if you haven't yet, encourage students to take time off this week to rest. With increased working from home and not wanting to travel, we need to be extra intentional about unplugging from work over the Thanksgiving holiday.
