Tackling misconceptions and anxiety about breast density
CALHN Research Pulse Podcast | Season 3 episode 3 |
What is breast density? It's nothing to do with how breasts look or feel, but it can be linked with your breast cancer risk.
In this episode of Research Pulse, Associate Professor Wendy Ingman shares her latest research findings on women's understanding of breast density. She provides a simple explanation of what breast density actually means and how it relates to breast cancer.
Wendy is Head of the Breast Biology and Cancer Unit in the Basil Hetzel Institute for Translational Health Research, based at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital. As one of Australia’s leading breast researchers, she’s passionate about improving the evidence and awareness around breast density.
