KU Doctor Defends Mammograms Against NCI Caution
Dr Loren Humphrey of the University of Kansas Medical Center called the National Cancer Institute guidance on routine breast X rays irresponsible and said his clinic will continue offering mammograms to any woman who wants them even if federal funding ends. The EU center screens about 10 000 women yearly at no charge and receives roughly $400 000 from the NCI and cancer society, amid interim guidelines suggesting possible greater risk for women aged 35 to 50 without symptoms.
