As healthcare professionals, we understand that breast cancer awareness is critical for all demographics, including men. In a discussion on CapeTalk, our SCP Radiologist Dr Anne Marie du Plessie alongside Dr Lizanne Langenhoven address this important topic, highlighting the risk factors, symptoms, and the necessity of early detection even in male patients.   It’s vital that we, as specialists, recognize and educate our patients about the reality of male breast cancer. By fostering awareness, we can empower our patients to seek timely screening and intervention.   Let’s collaborate to ensure that no one falls through the cracks when it comes to breast health. Please consider referring patients who may benefit from this information, and feel free to share insights from the discussion within your networks.   Together, we can make a difference in early detection and treatment.    #BreastCancerAwareness #MensHealth #SCPRadiologist #EarlyDetection #HealthcareCollaboration

Meet Dr Salomine Theron, radiologist and Branch Manager at SCP Radiology Tygervalley Mammography Centre. Mammography is a crucial tool for the early detection of breast cancer. It can reveal abnormalities even before they're noticeable through self-exams. It is recommended that women at average risk should start regular screening mammograms at age 40, while those with higher risk should follow their doctor's guidance. Dr Theron plays an invaluable role in SCP's breast imaging team. Her dedication to patient care is also evident in her leadership at the Tygervalley Mammography Centre and as a member of the SCP management committee.   #ImagingSpecialists #WomenInRadiology #Mammography #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth #MedicalSpecialist

We are pleased to share our latest article on breast cancer in men. In collaboration with Dr Salomine Theron and Dr Lizanne Langenhoven, we explore the prevalence of this often-overlooked condition and the critical role of radiology in diagnosis and treatment.   As highlighted by Dr Langenhoven, approximately 1% of breast cancer cases occur in men, often diagnosed at advanced stages due to a lack of awareness. Early detection is crucial for improving outcomes, and radiology plays a vital role in identifying and assessing breast tumours.   Key takeaways from our discussion:   Breast cancer in men is a serious health concern. Early detection is crucial for successful treatment. Radiology is essential for diagnosis, staging, and treatment planning. Men presenting with lumps should undergo thorough evaluation.   This Breast Cancer Awareness Month is an opportunity to raise awareness about breast cancer in men and encourage early detection. https://lnkd.in/d5V8vfbM   #BreastCancerAwareness #Mammography #SCPRadiology #menshealth #healthcare #medicalprofessionals
