To tell or not to tell? That is the question. It has been asked — and gone unasked — for decades, tracing back to the profoundly improved resolution coming from next generation medical imaging equipment. Spurred by digital sonograms and submillimeter-resolution CTs and MRIs, physicians have questioned whether what they see is really disease. Are abnormalities benign — or are they the early signs of disease that need immediate attention?

Feature | Mammography Reporting Software | Erin Martin

Centers that perform mammograms in the United States know their job doesn’t just stop at delivering results to the referring physician. Mammography is regulated by the government and centers need to adhere to the rules for breast cancer tracking and reporting in the Mammography Quality and Standards Act (MQSA). This means a more personal relationship with the mammography patients is necessary, as the center is responsible for providing each patient’s results and ensuring each patient has the required follow-up exams. This is a timely endeavor, and without a streamlined solution to help with breast cancer tracking and reporting, patients can get lost when waiting for priors or follow up exams causing centers to fail their annual MQSA audits. I recommend selecting a solution that will automate breast cancer tracking and reporting to improve patient care, while cutting costs and saving time. With that said, below are five changes you can make to improve breast cancer tracking and reporting within your facility.

The association between provider case volume and outcomes has long been suggested in cancer care. A Yale Cancer Center team has completed a review of outcomes for patients with locally advanced squamous cell head and neck cancers treated with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and found a distinct association between higher-volume treatment centers and improved overall survival. The findings were presented Sept. 26 at the American Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology (ASTRO) meeting in Boston.
