Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS): What It Is, Causes, Symptoms & Treatment
A breast cancer diagnosis can be terrifying, but one type of early-stage disease is noninvasive and has high survival odds. There have been an estimated 297,790 new cases of breast cancer diagnosed in the United States so far this year, the U.S.... (Source: Drugs.com - Daily MedNews)

Scientists Say They ’ve Reached ‘Turning Point’ in Cancer Research With Vaccines
SEATTLE — The next big advance in cancer treatment could be a vaccine. After decades of limited success, scientists say research has reached a turning point, with many predicting more vaccines will be out in five years. These aren’t traditional vaccines that prevent disease, but shots to shrink tumors and stop cancer from coming back. Targets for these experimental treatments include breast and lung cancer, with gains reported this year for deadly skin cancer melanoma and pancreatic cancer. “We’re getting something to work. Now we need to get it to work better,” said Dr. James Gulley, who help...

TriHealth breast cancer patient, surgical oncologist share screening insights
When Ohio House Bill 371 passed last year, insurance companies had to start paying for additional screenings beyond the traditional mammogram for patients with a higher risk of breast cancer. TriHealth patient Jenny Dermody called the additional imaging coverage “a huge blessing” in this episode of the Getting Health Care Right podcast. She took advantage and got a 3D mammogram after her regular one last fall — and the team found lobular carcinoma. Dermody shares her story in this episode… (Source: bizjournals.com Health Care:Physician Practices headlines)
