This in-depth research, covered by three universities, tested 123 radiologists and interpreted nearly 36,000 diagnostic mammograms. Different radiologists reported different results, ranging from 27 percent to 100 percent, with false positives up to 16 percent indicating there are obvious problems. Mammograms interpreted by general radiologists who experience only a small percentage of mammogram diagnostics in their practice were the most inaccurate. Those based in academic medical centres fared best. "There is a need for improved performance on how radiologists perform", said Miglioretti. "In the meantime women are urged to find an imaging specialist who spends a large percentage of time reading mammograms. There have been many instances of unnecessary surgery and breast removals; it is time to further educate radiologists". One thing that was ignored in the report is the fact that there is considerable conjecture on whether mammograms are actually causing breast cancer. Health experts and even many medical professionals claim they do more harm than good, not only because of the inaccurate readings, but by irradiating the breasts when testing, the possibility of cancer is greatly increased. A survey reported in the prestigious Lancet Journal in 2006 claimed it took eight years before breast cancer could definitely be diagnosed and by then it was too late as the cancer had already spread. The scare campaign promoted by the medical profession and the drug companies has resulted in 22% of women in the UK genuinely considering a double mastectomy in case they developed a problem. How insane is that? As always prevention is the true answer, correct nutrition, and natural herbs, plenty of sunlight, exercise, eliminating stress and empowering yourself with information.
