Congratulations to Anne Marie McCarthy, PhD, Assistant Professor of Epidemiology, on being featured in a new Radiology podcast episode highlighting her latest research.
In “White-Black Racial Differences in BPE at Breast MRI,” Dr. McCarthy discusses research examining Black–White differences in background parenchymal enhancement (BPE) on contrast-enhanced breast MRI. The episode highlights findings that Black women had higher odds of high BPE independent of breast density and explores how quantitative BPE assessment may help improve breast cancer risk assessment and screening equity.
The conversation centers on findings from her recent publication in Radiology: Black-White Racial Differences in Background Parenchymal Enhancement at Breast MRI.
