Mammograms miss cancers in women with dense breast tissue. QT breast ultrasound can see what mammograms can't, especially when compared to a baseline scan. Combined with a blood test that detects early cancer, it catches tumors sooner and may avoid unnecessary biopsies.

And everybody knows about the mammogram. But really what I like is QT breast ultrasound that help us to look at the breast with an ultrasound for even dense tissue. So why is that important? Because a lot of women have dense tissue. They have maybe a cyst and other things going on and we can read this with that image and when you combine that with getting a baseline so you can see where the breast tissue is in baseline for look for any lesions, any changes and then look at it every couple years depending on your risk. If you, let's say, have a genetic breast cancer risk in the family, you can do it the routine testing more like annually. But this is better in that sense because now if we see something in the QT breast ultrasound plus we have this early detection multi cancer test that shows breast cancer's there, we've got something and we haven't done really any biopsy or anything at this point, but we know it's there and it's usually going to be really small.
