When it comes to fighting breast cancer, the second most deadly cancer among women, it’s important to remember that there is always more to learn. Find out the latest on breast cancer research and treatments from two experts in our special Hadassah On Call podcast episode, “Breast Cancer: Early Detection, Higher Risks and the Effect of COVID-19.”
Join host Benyamin Cohen for a fascinating interview with Prof. Beatrice Uziely, the head of Oncology and Ambulatory Services at Hadassah's Sharett Institute of Oncology, and Dr. Shani Paluch-Shimon, the new director of Breast Oncology at Hadassah. These pioneering breast cancer specialists discuss challenges young patients face and how COVID-19 is causing women to skip mammogram appointments, which may lead to an uptick in breast cancer cases.
“It’s a major concern,” said Dr. Paluch-Shimon. “It’s very possible we’ll see some delays in diagnosis. In some cases, even a small delay can be a disaster.”
