In honor of National Mammography Day, we want to remind you to schedule your annual mammogram if you’re over the age of 40. Don’t delay any screenings due to COVID-19; healthcare facilities have precautions in place to keep you safe during your visit.
Mammogram screening test vs. mammogram diagnostic test. Typically, screenings are conducted if you have no apparent symptoms. If you are experiencing breast pain, a change in the breast shape or size, unusual skin thickening, or a new lump, a diagnostic test may be better at detecting signs of breast cancer.
At Carolina Breast Care Specialists, PA, we bring a personalized approach to women and men in our care as opposed to a hospital-based practice offering a wide range of services from mastectomies to mammograms. Visit us online for more information! https://www.carolinabreastcarespecialists.com/services/mastectomy?utm_source=social&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=smades
There is a small chance that breast implants could rupture during a mammogram, so it's important to inform your technician if you have implants before undergoing the procedure!
Every woman should know her mammographic density.
This is a legal requirement for every mammogram report.
Women with documented overall increased mammographic density should consider additional adjunctive imaging such as ultrasound or breast MRI (for qualifying high risk patients).
At Carolina Breast Care Specialists, we have years of experience with automated whole breast ultrasound screening (AWBUS) as an adjunct to mammography for women with documented increased mammographic density. (And, yes, we have found tumors not seen on mammography).

‘PINK’: The story behind Dolly Parton, Monica, Jordin Sparks, Rita Wilson and Sara Evans song collaboration
If you’ve listened to music at all during the past 20 years – and honestly, who hasn’t? – chances are Victoria Shaw’s talent has touched you. The Nashville-based, New York-born, Los Angeles-raised triple threat has either written or produced some of music’s most memorable tunes and performed on the world’s biggest stages. Whether you’re talking about Garth Brooks, Ricky Martin or Lady Antebellum, Victoria’s Midas touch has helped craft music that makes memories.
As a song writer, Victoria often finds inspiration in her everyday life. And that’s exactly what happened with the new song “PINK”. After seeing a public service announcement for Susan G. Komen®, she thought to herself: “someday pink will just be another color and we won’t have to do this anymore.”
She was moved to bring this idea to life several months later, when during a co-writing session with her friends Jodi Marr and emerging artist, Erin Kinsey, Erin’s manager, Amy Fish, revealed she was a breast cancer survivor. “I was actually in shock,” shared Victoria, “none of us knew that just a year prior Amy had privately gone through breast cancer treatment.”
“It was in that moment that the three of us knew we had to write a song together about a day when breast cancer no longer exists. I don’t know anybody that hasn’t been touched by breast cancer whether personally or just knowing somebody who has or has it,” shared Victoria, “and that was truly the catalyst for this song.”
Once the song was written Victoria connected with Susan G. Komen, and immediately the partnership formed. Soon after, all the stars aligned when five powerhouse performers from country, pop, and R&B – Dolly Parton, Monica, Jordin Sparks, Rita Wilson and Sara Evans signed on to release this new song, “PINK”. Each artist shares a connection to the fight against breast cancer through the love for friends and family that have been impacted by this disease.
The moving lyrics and vocals provide listeners with hope for a future when no one loses someone they love to breast cancer. As 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some point in her lifetime, nearly everyone has or will be touched by this disease that kills more than 42,000 women and men in the U.S. each year.

You've most likely heard of a mammogram procedure, but do you know what it really is? According to the American Cancer Society, "a mammogram uses a machine designed to look only at breast tissue. The machine takes x-rays at lower doses than usual x-rays. Because these x-rays don't go through tissue easily, the machine has 2 plates that compress or flatten the breast to spread the tissue apart. This gives a better picture and allows less radiation to be used."

ASBrS-NSGC Joint Statement of Medical Societies Regarding Genetic Testing Requirements
At Carolina Breast Care Specialists, PA we recognize the important, growing, and evolving role of genetic information and testing in breast health and breast cancer care. Every patient seen receives a genetic and breast cancer risk assessment. Patients are appropriately counseled and as indicated non-invasive (buccal washings instead of blood draw) can be obtained and submitted for state of the art multi-gene extended panel testing. Individualize care plans are made and enacted with patients based on these results.
ASBrS-NSGC Joint Statement of Medical Societies Regarding Genetic Testing Requirements
Summary:
In an effort to emphasize the importance of genetic testing and to facilitate high-value genetics services by all clinicians, the ASBrS and the NSGC recognize the common goal of delivering quality genetic testing as part of optimal patient care for our patients. We want to assure that all patients who are eligible for testing have access. We recognize that some breast surgeons are prevented from ordering testing by institutional policies or insurer requirements. We believe any barriers to genetic testing pose the risk of exacerbating disparities in access to care.
It is proposed that:
1. Every patient who sees a breast surgeon should be evaluated for hereditary risk of cancer, potential need for genetic testing and/or genetic counseling.
Breast surgeons with sufficient experience and appropriate training in hereditary risk assessment/genetic testing should be able to order genetic testing when indicated. The breast surgeon should be knowledgeable in genetic testing and be able to provide patient education, counseling, and make recommendations to their patients regarding genetic testing and genetically-targeted care pathways, consistent with the American College of Surgeons’ Commission on Cancer and National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers Standards on Cancer Risk Assessment, Genetic Counseling and Genetic Testing.
2. Genetic Counselors are a vital resource and provide valuable support in education, testing, and interpretation of genetic test results. A team approach to care is ideal, including both high-quality breast surgeons and genetics professionals for consultation and assistance as needed.
3. There are a multitude of different and equally effective genetic counseling service delivery models including in person and telemedicine. When necessary, these services can be made available within the particular time of surgical decision making for breast cancer treatment.
4. Increasing efforts will continue to facilitate the delivery of high value genetic counseling services through leveraging alternative service delivery models and fostering collaborative approaches to genetics service delivery between both genetics and non-genetics providers. This will effectively promote our mutual goal of providing hereditary risk assessment and genetic testing for all appropriate patients.
