"What is your message to radiologic technologists?"

Dr. Jessica Leung has an important reminder for our rad techs - we couldn't do it without you!

Healthcare work asks a lot of you emotionally, physically, and mentally.
Long shifts. High expectations. Constant urgency. And very little space to pause.

What often gets overlooked is how much small moments matter. Feeling supported. Having a brief sense of calm. Being reminded that your well-being isn’t an afterthought, but a priority. When healthcare organizations create environments that acknowledge stress instead of ignoring it, it helps teams feel seen, not just managed.

Research continues to show that simple, intentional comfort strategies can reduce stress, improve focus, and support resilience. Things like sensory grounding, calming environments, and moments of quiet don’t fix everything, but they can make hard days feel more manageable.

You carry a lot for your patients. You deserve care, too.
And sometimes, support starts with something small offered with intention and understanding.

Breast cancer doesn’t always present as a clear, unmistakable lump.Sometimes it shows up quietly as a subtle change. A slight thickening. Skin dimpling. Ni**le changes. Or a feeling that something is just different.

These small signs are easy to overlook, but they matter. Careful listening, clear communication, and thoughtful imaging help ensure subtle concerns aren’t dismissed. When patients share what they’re noticing and imaging teams take the time to connect those details to what’s seen on the images, important changes are more likely to be caught early.

In breast imaging, early detection often depends on attention to the details that don’t always stand out. And when patients feel heard, they’re more likely to speak up and stay engaged in their care.

Because in breast cancer detection, every detail matters.

“If the breast moves, the procedure may need to be restarted… resulting in additional radiation exposure and added costs.”

Restarting a biopsy increases radiation exposure, extends procedure time, and may require additional supplies costing $1,000 or more.

Bella Blankets® help reduce the likelihood of restarts by maintaining breast position throughout the procedure.

In this case involving a 77-year-old patient undergoing stereotactic core needle biopsy, breast positioning was a key challenge due to the posterior location of the microcalcifications. Dr. Amy Patel describes how Bella Blankets® helped stabilize the breast during compression, allowing the team to accurately target and successfully biopsy the lesion without restarting the procedure.

Clinical challenges require practical solutions. This case shows how improved stabilization can translate directly to efficiency and accuracy in biopsy care.

Case highlight! A 50-year-old man with a history of sigmoid colon cancer, a few months post-colectomy, who presented with recurrent abdominal pain. An outside CT suggested possible small-bowel obstruction in the left upper quadrant, so MR enterography was performed to further evaluate.

What was captured is shown here: a transient jejunal intussusception that resolved during the study.

The first image demonstrates the intussusception clearly, while the second image, taken later in the same exam, shows complete resolution. A great reminder that not all small-bowel intussusceptions in adults are pathologic, and some can be fleeting, functional events.

A key contributor to the excellent bowel visualization in this case: the patient drank Breeza flavored beverage for small bowel distention, providing outstanding luminal contrast and making the anatomy crisp, clean, and easy to assess. 🌟

Always satisfying when MR enterography gives such definitive, dynamic answers — especially in complex post-operative patients.

“When should I get my first mammogram?”

Dr. Kristen Zarfos highlights the nuanced factors that should guide decisions around a patient’s first mammogram.

From family history and genetic predisposition, to overall health and personal history, to ethnicity-related risk, particularly the higher incidence of early-onset breast cancer in Black women. Dr. Zarfos underscores why individualized screening matters.

When do you recommend your patients start thinking about getting their mammograms?
