Harold J. Burstein: USPSTF finally catches up in recommending mammograms starting at age 40

Harold J. Burstein, Breast cancer specialist and professor Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School, shared a post on X:

USPSTF finally catches up to most other US organizations in recommending mammograms starting at age 40 but opts for biennial screening even knowing that that decreases regular imaging compared to annual recommendations. American Cancer Society favors annual and starting in 40s.
