(NewsUSA) - We take X-rays for granted, but they were unknown until German physicist Wilhelm Roentgen discovered them 130 years ago. Today, they’re associated with detecting problems with bones, teeth, and more, but one of their most important uses is curing common skin cancer.

More than 9,000 Americans each day are diagnosed with nonmelanoma skin cancer and, traditionally, they would be facing Mohs surgery to cure their disease. However, many cases are now successfully treated without surgery, thanks to research-backed, highly effective, noninvasive radiation therapies such as Image-Guided SRT, SRT, and Electronic Brachytherapy.

These nonsurgical treatments are available at select dermatology practices nationwide.

Highly skilled radiation therapists, in collaboration with dermatologists, radiation oncologists, and other specialists, utilize the latest advancements in X-ray and high-definition ultrasound technology to precisely target and destroy cancer cells—without scalpel, pain, or surgical scarring. Image-Guided SRT boasts a cure rate of 99% or higher, comparable to Mohs surgery, while Electronic Brachytherapy achieves a 98.8% cure rate within two years. With each of these treatments, radiation therapists play critical roles in advancing patient care.

Dr. Jacob Scott, Chairman of the Dermatology Association of Radiation Therapy (DART), a nationwide association of medical practitioners in the field of skin cancer, says, “Radiation therapists are key medical team members in the fight against common skin cancer. They often have the most face time with patients and with their professional training, radiation therapists are well positioned to participate in treatment planning and execution. They are instrumental in assessing patient needs and progress, and in assuring patient compliance with the plan.”

DART member Kelsay Craig holds a Bachelor of Science in Radiation Therapy and a Radiologic Technology Certificate from the University of Iowa and is a radiation therapist with DoctorsNow in West Des Moines, Iowa. Craig notes, "It is such a privilege and pleasure to work with patients knowing that with each treatment, they are on the path to being cancer-free. Radiation therapy has been a hidden gem in most dermatology communities, and I'm thrilled to be able to present Image-Guided SRT as a noninvasive treatment option for nonmelanoma skin cancers.”

The week of November 3 is National Radiologic Technology Week. If you know or have been treated by a radiation therapist, give them your thanks.

(NewsUSA) - Diabetes remains a growing health crisis in the United States, but many people living with diabetes are confused as to which foods should be part of their meal plan, according to the American Diabetes Association (ADA). For example, many people believe that those with diabetes or prediabetes should avoid potatoes, but in fact potatoes are highly nutritious and can be part of any healthy diet.  

“We want those living with diabetes and prediabetes to feel confident eating potatoes with their breakfast, lunch or dinner as long as serving size and preparation recommendations are followed,” according to Jamey Higham, president and CEO of the Idaho Potato Commission. “This partnership aims to enhance people’s understanding of nutrition, especially carbohydrates, help build healthy eating habits and debunk some myths about potatoes and diabetes.”

The ADA's Better Choices for Life program uses the ADA’s evidence-based guidelines and perspective to help consumers make informed choices about food purchases. Participating products display the Better Choices for Life mark on their packaging. In the coming months, this mark will appear on select 5-lb and 10-lb bags of fresh Idaho® potatoes.

The Diabetes Plate is one way the ADA educates people with diabetes about healthy eating.

This simple plan shows how to put together a meal that consists of vegetables, protein, and carbohydrates, which can include potatoes.

The Diabetes Plate:

Step 1: Fill half your nine-inch plate with non-starchy vegetables. Non-starchy vegetables are low in carbohydrates, so they have less impact on blood glucose.

Step 2: Fill one-quarter of your plate with lean protein, such as fish, chicken, lean beef, soy products, and cheese.

Step 3: Fill the last quarter of your plate with carbohydrate foods, such as starchy vegetables, beans and legumes, grains, fruit, and low-fat dairy products.

Step 4: Drink water or another zero-calorie beverage.

Step 5: Choose healthy fats in small amounts.

Potatoes are a starchy vegetable and can be a selection for the carbohydrate section of the Diabetes Plate. They are considered a superfood by many nutritionists because they contain potassium, vitamin C, and fiber. In addition, one 5.3-ounce potato has 110 calories, contains no sodium, and is naturally gluten-free and free of saturated fats.

Of course, preparation matters. Tips for healthy potato preparation include baking or boiling instead of frying, keeping the skins on for extra fiber, and using healthy oils when needed, such as avocado oil or extra virgin olive oil.

(NewsUSA) - The ScanEase OneSense device is a screening tool for diagnosing breast cancer. The device facilitates an examination that is accessible to patients of any age and body type, allowing for self-examination due to its user-friendly design in the privacy of their home. The results help assess the risk of new tissue formations in the breast. The higher the risk factor on the BI-RADS scale, the greater the likelihood of malignant tissue degeneration. In light of this, the OneSense scanning device is recommended for the primary diagnosis of breast tumors in outpatient settings and for at-home self-examinations. The scan results are visible through an app on your smartphone, which will advise whether you should consult with a physician.

Measurement method: 

The device measures the distribution of conductivity between the electrodes on the surface of the breast, which is influenced by the distribution of blood flow in the breast tissue.  The device utilizes the well-known principle of bioimpedance, measuring the difference in electrical conductivity between healthy and cancerous tissues, as tumor growth significantly increases blood flow. This allows the device to demonstrate a high specificity in breast cancer diagnostics. The results obtained from using the device will enable physicians to enhance the diagnostic quality of fibroepithelial and non-epithelial breast formations, as diagnostic errors occur in 20% to 60% of cases during routine patient examinations. The widespread use of ScanEase scanning technology will reduce the reliance on X-ray mammography and MRI examinations as routine methods for assessing breast health, thereby decreasing radiation exposure.

A unique software with a proprietary AI-based algorithm has been developed, enabling users to determine the risk factor for the presence of neoplasms in breast tissue immediately after screening, with an accuracy of up to 85%. The bioimpedance method identifies areas of increased electrical conductivity in a woman's mammary gland, that are formed due to increased blood flow, which is characteristic of tumor development.

The interpretation of the obtained data is performed by an AI-based system using the international BI-RADS scale, which indicates a complex 'risk factor' parameter on a specialized point scale. This approach standardizes and digitizes the data description using original algorithms, allowing for an assessment of the patient's risk according to the BI-RADS scale. The method makes it possible to reliably divide patients into 3 groups of threats based on the magnitude of the risk factor: low, medium and high risk.

The user of the scanning device can immediately view the results through an app on their smartphone. If a medium or high-risk result is indicated, the person should promptly contact their physician for further diagnosis.

In early 2025, the device will enter FDA clinical trials on a fast-track basis for a non-invasive medical trial. Upon final FDA approval, the device will be available for purchase online, with a projected cost of $350. The device can be shared among friends and family, reducing the cost per person using it.

(NewsUSA) - As we age, maintaining physical fitness and the ability to move our body easily becomes more important to our overall well-being. However, an often-overlooked condition known as sarcopenia can gradually lower individuals’ muscle mass and strength without obvious warning.

Sarcopenia is the loss of muscle and strength that can happen when someone gets older. This can lead to weakness, decreased ability to move, and a higher risk of falls and broken bones. Although aging is a risk factor, others include poor nutrition and lack of physical activity. Some chronic illnesses and hormonal changes, such as those that occur with menopause, may also lead to higher risk of sarcopenia.

Recognizing the signs and symptoms of sarcopenia is key for early intervention to maintain quality of life and independence. Unexplained muscle weakness, lower endurance, or having a hard time with everyday activities might be signs that it’s time to take action.

Being aware of sarcopenia is important for individuals who care for family members or friends, as they are often the first to notice changes in strength, ability to move, and overall well-being. Caregivers can help get timely medical consultations and interventions.

Some of the common signs and symptoms of sarcopenia include:

• Muscle Weakness: An early and often noticeable symptom of sarcopenia is decreased muscle strength. Tasks that were once easy, such as lifting things, climbing stairs, or even standing up from a chair, may become challenging.
• Loss of Muscle Mass: An easy-to-see decrease in muscle size, particularly in the arms and legs, is a common sign of sarcopenia.
• Reduced Energy and Endurance: Adults with sarcopenia may report a lack of energy and decreased ability to do physical activity. Activities that involve sustained physical effort, like grocery shopping or gardening, may lead to faster exhaustion.
• Difficulty with Balance and Coordination: As muscle strength and function decline, balance and coordination may also be affected. The risk of falls increases and can lead to broken bones, which may decrease mobility further and impact overall health.
• Slower Walking Speed: An easy-to-see reduction in walking speed and a shuffling gait may be signs of sarcopenia.

“If a person notices any of the signs and symptoms of sarcopenia, they or their caregiver should seek professional medical help,” advises Dr. Dorothy Fink, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Women’s Health. “A health care provider can perform a thorough evaluation, including physical examinations, muscle strength tests, and imaging studies, to diagnose sarcopenia. An accurate diagnosis is the first step towards effectively addressing sarcopenia.”

Once diagnosed, you and your health care provider can create a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. This may include strength training activities and nutritional advice to help keep and rebuild muscle and strength.

(NewsUSA) - Si eres uno de los 1 de cada 5 estadounidenses que cuida de un cónyuge, padre, hijo, adulto mayor o alguien con condiciones de salud crónicas, discapacidades o necesidades especiales, es posible que hayas asumido este rol con poca o ninguna capacitación o asistencia externa.

Además de ayudar a otros con las actividades diarias y tareas médicas, los cuidadores a menudo actúan como defensores, asegurándose de que aquellos a quienes cuidan reciban la atención preventiva y los tratamientos que necesitan, incluyendo la protección contra amenazas potencialmente graves de enfermedades respiratorias como el COVID-19 y la gripe.

Desarrollar un plan de cuidado que incluya listas de verificación y recordatorios puede ayudar a los cuidadores a organizarse y prepararse para gestionar el cuidado diario y de la salud de otra persona. Los Defensores de la Educación, la Equidad y el Progreso de la Vacunación (CVEEP)  y la National Alliance for Caregiving (NAC) han emitido una nueva guía para ayudar a los cuidadores a construir un plan de cuidado antes de la temporada de enfermedades respiratorias de este año, que puede ser un momento estresante para las personas con condiciones médicas crónicas o sistemas inmunitarios comprometidos.

Los expertos de CVEEP y NAC ofrecen los siguientes consejos para los cuidadores:

• Mantén una lista de problemas médicos y medicamentos Asegúrate de llevar un registro de cualquier problema médico y cualquier alergia, incluidas las alergias a medicamentos, que la persona bajo tu cuidado pueda tener. También es importante mantener una lista de los medicamentos que toman, incluyendo vitaminas, suplementos o productos herbales.
• Mantente al día con las vacunas Asegúrate de que tú y aquellos bajo tu cuidado estén al día con las vacunas de rutina, incluidas las vacunas actualizadas contra el COVID-19 y la gripe que están disponibles en otoño. Consulta con un proveedor de atención médica sobre vacunas adicionales que puedan ser necesarias para protegerte contra otras enfermedades respiratorias infecciosas como el VSR, la enfermedad neumocócica o la tos ferina.
• Observa los síntomas Los síntomas de enfermedades respiratorias pueden incluir tos, fiebre, dificultad para respirar y dolor de garganta. Busca consejo médico temprano si estos síntomas aparecen, especialmente en adultos mayores, niños pequeños y cualquier persona con mayor riesgo de enfermedad grave debido a condiciones médicas crónicas.
• Accede al tratamiento Los fármacos antivirales pueden ayudar a tratar el COVID-19 y la gripe, aliviando los síntomas y reduciendo el riesgo de hospitalización, especialmente para personas con mayor riesgo de enfermedad grave. Son tratamientos de venta con receta y que deben administrarse al inicio de la enfermedad, por lo que es importante estar preparado y actuar con rapidez cuando aparecen los primeros síntomas. Habla con un proveedor de atención médica para determinar si un tratamiento antiviral es una opción para las personas a las que cuidas.
• Mantente informado Sigue a los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC, por sus siglas en inglés) para obtener la información más reciente sobre la temporada de enfermedades respiratorias y habla con tu proveedor de atención médica para obtener respuestas a cualquier pregunta que puedas tener.

Se anima a los cuidadores a visitar el sitio web de CVEEP (cveep.org/es/) y el sitio web de NAC (caregiving.org) para obtener información y recursos adicionales.

(NewsUSA) - If you are among the 1 in 5 Americans who serves as a caregiver to a spouse, parent, child, older adult, or someone with chronic health conditions, disabilities, or special needs, you may have taken on the role with little or no training or outside assistance.

In addition to assisting others with the activities of daily living and medical tasks, caregivers are often advocates helping ensure that those they care for receive the preventive care and treatments they need – including protection from potentially serious threats from respiratory illnesses like COVID-19 and flu.

Developing a care plan that includes checklists and reminders can help caregivers organize and prepare themselves to help manage someone else’s daily care and health. Champions for Vaccine Education, Equity and Progress (CVEEP) and the National Alliance for Caregiving (NAC) have issued a new guide to help caregivers build a care plan ahead of this year’s respiratory illness season, which can be a stressful time for people with chronic medical conditions or compromised immune systems. 

CVEEP and NAC experts offer the following tips for caregivers:

• Keep a list of medical issues and medications. Be sure to keep a record of any medical issues and any allergies – including drug allergies – the person in your care may have. It’s also important to maintain a list of the medications they take, including vitamins, supplements, or herbal products.
• Stay current on vaccinations. Ensure that you and those in your care stay up to date on routine vaccinations, including the updated COVID-19 and flu vaccines available in the fall. Consult with a healthcare provider about additional vaccines that may be necessary to protect against other infectious respiratory illnesses like RSV, pneumococcal disease, or whooping cough.
• Watch for symptoms. Symptoms of respiratory illness can include cough, fever, shortness of breath, and sore throat. Seek medical advice early if these symptoms appear, especially in older adults, young children, and anyone at increased risk for severe illness because of chronic medical conditions.
• Access treatment. Antiviral drugs can help treat COVID-19 and flu, lessening symptoms and lowering the risk of hospitalization, especially for people at higher risk for serious illness. They are prescription-only treatments that must be given early in illness, so it’s important to be prepared and act quickly when the first symptoms appear. Talk to a healthcare provider to determine if an antiviral treatment is an option for those you are caring for.
• Stay informed. Follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for the latest information on respiratory illness season and talk to your health care provider for answers to any questions you may have.

Caregivers are encouraged to visit the CVEEP website (cveep.org) and NAC website (caregiving.org) for additional information and resources.

(National Psoriasis Foundation) - You’ve seen the commercials. Psoriasis treatments are everywhere. So it would follow that people with psoriasis can also be found everywhere, right? In theory, yes. About 3 percent of all people will develop psoriasis – a chronic, inflammatory disease that can have severe consequences and comes with an unwelcome increased risk of several related diseases. But what the numbers don’t show is the impact that shame and stigma can have and the unintended consequences of those feelings.

More than 125 million people worldwide live with psoriasis. If you attend a National Football League game this fall or winter, you’ll be in a stadium with more than 2,000 people who have developed psoriasis. Or maybe music is more your thing. If you saw Taylor Swift at the average Eras Tour venue in the U.S., about 2,300 of your fellow Swifties in attendance were living with this lifelong disease.

When you frame it that way and think about all the psoriasis drug commercials filling up your screen, it may sound like the disease is well understood – even normalized. But the results of the new Psoriasis Health Indicator Report bring a dark reality to light: Misunderstandings about psoriasis and the people who live with this disease are rampant. Worse yet, stigma about the disease is a contributing factor to people living in isolation or not seeking care.

Misunderstandings Have Consequences

According to the report, more than half of the people in the U.S. who do not live with psoriasis say they would be uncomfortable dating someone with the disease, and more than 40 percent say they wouldn’t even be comfortable shaking hands with someone living with psoriasis.

How would you feel if 1 in 3 people were uncomfortable having you in their home? Yes, another sad reality laid out in the report. What about if 1 in 4 people were closed off to being your friend because of a disease you live with? Ouch.

With so much stigma – such a drastic level of misunderstanding and downright discrimination – would you be open about your life with psoriasis? Would you be willing to pursue treatment?

Psoriasis is not contagious, but it is a public health concern. People with this disease are at an elevated risk for heart disease, type 2 diabetes, psoriatic arthritis, and depression. All of those risks – as well as the threat of developing more severe psoriasis – increase when the disease is left untreated. Booking an appointment with a healthcare provider is hard enough. But carrying around all the stigma-driven shame that comes with having this visible disease makes the pursuit of proper disease management and treatment from a qualified specialist much more unlikely.

The Truth Heals

Tragically, all this stigma is a part of daily life for the 8 million people in the U.S. who live with psoriasis, but people are speaking out, and each time they do, the world gains a little more understanding. Take Takieyah Mathis of Fayetteville, North Carolina for example. She recently opened up in the National Psoriasis Foundation’s In Focus: #ThisIsPsoriasis video series about the challenges she faces each day with this disease and the lessons she’s learned. “Psoriasis put me in a big self-esteem hole,” she shares. “I started to worry about my hair, my skin.” Takieyah was constantly worried about who was looking at her because of the lesions on her skin.

Takieyah took some time to work up the resolve to face the stigma and the stares from onlookers, but as a model, mother, and community builder – psoriasis was not going to hold her back. With the support of her husband and community, she took back control of her self-belief. “You are not your diagnosis. Try to find ways that make you feel beautiful or feel good,” she says. “Finding that peace within yourself is really what’s going to carry you through every day.”

We all know someone with psoriasis. We owe it to them to promote encouragement and support in the face of judgement and misunderstanding. August is Psoriasis Action Month, and thanks to the increased attention, and stories like Takieyah’s who are combatting stigma head-on with the truth and their lived experience, the rest of the world is gaining a little added perspective and compassion.

(NewsUSA) - Los niños están regresando a la escuela y el otoño se acerca rápidamente, lo que significa que la temporada de enfermedades respiratorias está a la vuelta de la esquina. Los expertos en salud instan a que ahora es el momento de pensar en cómo reducirás tu riesgo de enfermedades graves por COVID-19 y gripe en los próximos meses, incluyendo mantenerte al día con las últimas vacunas. Los funcionarios de salud también subrayan que el COVID-19 y la gripe son enfermedades graves que se encuentran entre las principales causas de muertes por enfermedades infecciosas en los Estados Unidos.

Los expertos de Champions for Vaccine Education, Equity, and Progress (CVEEP), una coalición dedicada a promover la educación y el acceso a las vacunas, respaldan esta orientación, subrayando que la vacunación oportuna es la defensa más efectiva contra enfermedades graves y hospitalizaciones. “Recibir las últimas vacunas contra el COVID-19 y la gripe cuando estén disponibles este otoño es crucial”, señala Beth Battaglino, CEO de HealthyWomen y coordinadora de CVEEP. “Los virus como los que causan el COVID-19 y la gripe mutan con el tiempo y las vacunas se actualizan específicamente de manera regular para contrarrestar estas nuevas variantes en circulación”.

Este verano, la nación ha experimentado un aumento significativo en los casos de COVID-19, atribuido a un virus en evolución. Para sobrevivir, el virus del COVID-19 está cambiando constantemente, lo que lleva a la aparición de nuevas variantes. Estas nuevas variantes pueden escapar de nuestra respuesta inmune natural y de la protección proporcionada por las vacunas anteriores.

A medida que surgen nuevas variantes, la protección proporcionada por las vacunas puede disminuir. Por eso es crucial mantenerse al día con tus vacunas contra el COVID-19 y la gripe. Al igual que las vacunas contra la gripe, las vacunas contra el COVID-19 se actualizan regularmente para proteger contra las variantes que se prevé que circulen durante la próxima temporada de enfermedades respiratorias, que generalmente abarca de septiembre a marzo.

Mantenerse al día con las vacunas contra el COVID-19 y la gripe reduce significativamente el riesgo de enfermedades graves, hospitalizaciones y muertes. De hecho, estudios recientes han demostrado que las vacunas contra la gripe reducen el riesgo de enfermedad hasta en un 60% y las vacunas contra el COVID-19 reducen el riesgo de hospitalización en un 80% y de muerte en un 90%.

Se espera que las vacunas actualizadas contra el COVID-19 y la gripe estén disponibles en las próximas semanas. Los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC) recomiendan que todas las personas de 6 meses en adelante reciban estas vacunas. Consulta a tu proveedor de atención médica o farmacia local para obtener más información sobre la disponibilidad.

(NewsUSA) - Children are returning to school and fall is fast approaching, which means respiratory illness season is right around the corner. Health experts urge that now is the time to think about how you will reduce your risk of severe illness from COVID-19 and flu in the months ahead, including staying up to date with the latest vaccines. Health officials also underscore that COVID-19 and flu are both serious illnesses that rank among the leading causes of infectious disease deaths in the United States.

Experts with Champions for Vaccine Education, Equity, and Progress (CVEEP), a coalition dedicated to promoting vaccine education and access, echo this guidance, underscoring that timely vaccination is the most effective defense against severe illness and hospitalization. "Receiving the latest COVID-19 and flu vaccines when they become available this fall is crucial," notes HealthyWomen CEO and CVEEP convener Beth Battaglino. "Viruses like those that cause COVID-19 and flu mutate over time and vaccines are specifically updated on a regular basis to counter these newly circulating variants.”  

This summer, the nation has experienced a significant surge in COVID-19 cases, attributed to an evolving virus. To survive, the COVID-19 virus is constantly changing, leading to the emergence of new variants. These new variants can escape our natural immune response, and the protection provided by previous vaccines.

As new variants arise, the protection provided by vaccines can wane.  That’s why staying up to date on your COVID-19 and flu vaccines is critical. Like flu vaccines, COVID-19 vaccines are regularly updated to protect against the variants predicted to circulate during the upcoming respiratory illness season, typically spanning from September to March.

Staying current with COVID-19 and flu vaccines significantly reduces the risk of severe illness, hospitalization, and death. In fact, recent studies have shown that flu shots reduce the risk of illness by up to 60% and COVID-19 vaccines lower the risk of hospitalization by 80% and death by 90%.

The updated COVID-19 and flu vaccines are expected to be available in the coming weeks. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that all individuals aged 6 months and older receive these vaccines. Consult your healthcare provider or local pharmacy to learn more about availability.

(NewsUSA) - Say hello to the uninvited guest: toenail fungus, the ultimate party crasher for your confidence! It’s not just about feeling uneasy; it’s like a fashion police for your feet, dictating a strict ‘no’ to those fabulous sandals and making you think twice before exposing your toes. And let’s talk about those doctor discussions - brace yourself for some seriously cringeworthy moments!

Identifying signs of toenail fungus, or onychomycosis, is essential. Look out for discolored or yellowed nails, nails that are brittle, cracked, or broken, thickened nails, or nails that have separated from the nail bed.

Did you know that toenail fungus affects around 10%-12% of the general population? It's even more prevalent among older adults and diabetics, with a whopping 20% in those over 60 and 50% in those over 70, according to Dr. Neil Sadick, a world-renowned dermatologist and Chief Medical Officer of STRIDETM, available at getmystride.com. While toenail fungus often targets the big toenail, any nail can fall victim to it.

"In general, clinical data strongly supports a combination of prescription antifungal medications as the most effective way to eliminate toenail fungal infections," advises Dr. Sadick. Dr. Peter Bregman, a board-certified podiatrist, has been treating toenail fungus for 25 years and echoes Dr. Sadick’s sentiment. He states, “The most effective treatment of toenail fungus is a combination of topical and oral medications in addition to treating your shoes with an antifungal spray to avoid recurrence. There are so many over-the-counter products that just do not work and patients are wasting their time and money with the vast majority of them.”

Dr. Sadick frequently recommends this combination approach for optimal results. The STRIDE DUOTM toenail fungus treatment boasts an impressive 89% clinical effectiveness rate, with noticeable improvements in appearance in just days. Thanks to STRIDETM, backed by Dr. Sadick, patients can now manage their condition entirely online, from the comfort of their home and on their own schedule. After creating a profile, a licensed clinician reviews the condition and provides a personalized diagnosis. Safe and effective FDA-approved prescription medications are then delivered to your door. Healthcare can be stressful, but STRIDETM takes the stress out of toenail fungus treatment.
