Doctor talks new technology, importance of breast cancer screenings
CHICAGO — In observance of Breast Cancer Awareness Month , experts are highlighting the importance of early screening, which is critical in the fight against breast cancer.The CDC encourages women to get regular mammogram screenings after they turn 40, but too often, women are unable or unsure about getting screened.Dr. Yvonne Karney, an OB/GYN from Crystal Lake, addresses those uncertainties and how prevalent the issue is.
However, there's a new piece of technology that could alleviate those fears.QT Imaging, aka Breast Acoustic CT, is a revolutionary breast imaging technology that uses the speed of sound, both reflective and through tissue, without compression, radiation, or IV contrast. Only six centers in the United States currently offer this technology commercially, one of which is located in Dr. Karney's office in Crystal Lake—the first in the Midwest.
