MammographyAwareness

Hi 😊! I am a qualified radiographer who is very keen and passionate about mammography. I created this account to share my journey as a Trainee Mammographer and also help raise awareness of the modality.

We're taking part in #NationalInclusionWeek with Inclusive Employers! This week, we're celebrating what makes our workplace stronger - #NowIsTheTime to share stories, spark conversations and take action to build an even more inclusive future together.

Get to know us this #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth 👋 Did you know that anyone can be affected by breast cancer? CoppaFeel! exists to educate, encourage and empower young people to know their bodies to stamp out late detection of breast cancer. We equip young people with the tools and confidence to know their own bodies and to advocate for it 🩷✨

October is here!! Breast Cancer Awareness Month! Mostly it's a time to really reflect on your patients and your practice. What can you do better?!? AND, if you have time, read some JOURNAL CLUB articles on #tomosynthesis for #BrImagingPubClub (bostonbreastimaging.com)!!

❗❗ More than 44% of women in the UK don’t check their breasts regularly, with 10% having never checked their breasts. This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, make it a point to familiarise yourself with the signs and symptoms of breast cancer. breastcancernow.org/checking?utm_s…
