The War on Women's Breasts

Hello ladies I am from the Head and Neck Section of this site but have recently come across a video covering how breast cancer is screened and treated and discussing it and some alternatives such as Thermography. I think you will find it interesting and please draw your own conclusions. I hope I am not overstepping my bounds by coming from another section of this forum.
Wishing You The Best
Take Care, God Bless

It covers topics including radiation exposure from mammograms, false positives/negatives leading to unnecessary procedures, overdiagnosis and overtreatment of non-threatening cancers, conflicts of interest in the medical industry, and alternative screening methods such as thermography and ultrasound.
