I am curious about this statement. CTFPHC | GECSSP has updated 1 guideline since they started creating guidelines in 2010.

Evidence for HPV screening was available as early as 2015 and the 2013 cervical cancer screening guideline has no update as of 2024.

Health task force blasted over ‘dangerous guidance’ for cancer screenings

They absolutely should be blasted. The dogmatic pursuit of RCTs and RCTs only is ignoring more recent and relevant science. Canadians are suffering and dying. globalnews.ca/news/10423697/…

“The Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care develops rigorous, evidence-based preventive health care guidelines based on the principles of impartiality, collaboration, and inclusivity.”… Yet, it’s already made its mind up. See picture and article link in 🧵👇

Thank you for a balanced article. Nicole Ireland

CTFPHC | GECSSP guidelines are not led by content experts and are unaccountable.

Experts have moved on from the ancient evidence and management practices used by CTF to develop guidelines. Time to move on from the Task Force.

'The consequences are grim. Current task force guidelines often limit access to critical life-saving screening and result in later stage diagnoses of disease. Later diagnosis is associated with greater suffering, death and increased treatment costs.' Shiela Appavoo MD #cdnpoli

And that’s just breast cancer. Even more lives lost because of the guidelines for other cancers, and other health concerns.

Current prostate cancer screening guidelines go against logic (add evidence, and expertise)

Dr Paul Wheatley-Price is a #lungcancer specialist who sees to many patients diagnosed too late. “We would like the Task Force to update their recommendations.” #cdnpoli

Experts from multiple medical specialties are horrified by the guidelines from CTFPHC | GECSSP. They are leading to avoidable suffering and thousands of avoidable deaths EVERY YEAR.

But opto-acoustic imaging looks amazing, and could lessen the need for AI for ultrasound.
Would love to see a head-to-head study between those two modalities. Seno Medical

The always wise and entertaining Jay Baker leading the challenging discussion of “It’s the Pits: Controversies in Imaging and Interventions in the Axilla.” #SBI2024

Final day of #SBI2024 it’s been an awesome conference. Dr Peter Eby acknowledges and thanks CSBI outgoing president Jean Seely, MD and @supriyakulk for their contributions to breast imaging and Society of Breast Imaging

And Bonnie Joe from UC San Francisco discussing AI in breast MRI #SBI2024

And Dr. Victoria Mango discussing AI for breast ultrasound. #SBI2024 MSK Breast Imaging

Great sessions on the potential for AI in breast cancer screening. Like this one by Dr. Vivianne Freitas discussing AI in DBT #SBI2024 University Health Network

Ed Sickles is hilariously self-deprecating about his role in the Auditing and Outcomes Monitoring updates for BIRADS 202? (Not a typo!)
given his extensive involvement in the creation and continued evolution of BIRADS. #SBI2024
