...patients feel better when they're getting scans and blood tests and all these things, I think the doctor has the same response. When you see that a patient is doing badly, a kind of low-level fear comes over a doctor, an anxiety that they're going to miss something. We feel that the tests are better than anything else we can do. And I just don't know that that's the case. (Watch TIME's video "Uninsured Again...
What do you miss about growing up and living in the Midwest? -Julie Jones, Iowa City, Iowa The biggest thing I miss in Iowa is my mom.

...Because MRI is particularly good at diagnosing small tumors - and picking up abnormalities that mammograms may miss in young women with dense breast tissue - which may cause undue anxiety. Evidence suggests that women who opt for MRIs tend to react to seeing their lesions, whether they are cancerous or not, by having their entire breast removed rather than just a portion of the tissue. "I just saw two patients who both had MRIs done at an outside institution, and both came in wanting mastectomies based on the MRI findings," says Dr. Anthony Lucci, a surgical oncologist at M.D. Anderson Cancer...
Hayes acknowledges that MRIs may also prove useful in detecting the spread of cancer from one breast to the other, but even here, he says, the data are still preliminary; MRIs may pick up about 3% to 5% of tumors that mammograms miss, but there is little evidence suggesting whether those additional tumors are malignant or benign. To find out the true benefit of MRI, he says, more research needs to be conducted. "Without randomized trials, we really don't know everything," says Norton...
SEOUL, South Korea — I’m going to miss a lot of things when I leave Seoul. I’ll miss green tea ice cream and jjimtang chicken. I’ll miss being obligation-free after 6p.m. I’ll even miss living in "the Pink Zone"—a.k.a. the area surrounding Ewha Womens University. But most of all, I’ll miss the people I’ve grown close to over the past two months...
