Mammography
Mammography is an x-ray examination of the breasts to detect abnormalities. The procedure involves positioning each breast on a compression paddle that applies pressure to flatten the breast for imaging. Patients should schedule mammograms when their breasts are least tender, usually after their period, and prepare by avoiding caffeine for several days before and not wearing any lotions or powders the morning of the test. The test involves separately compressing each breast with the x-ray machine and may cause some discomfort during the 15 minute procedure.
Mammogram
Mammography involves x-ray imaging of the breasts to detect cancer. Digital mammography was introduced in 2001. Mammogram results are categorized from 0 to 5 based on likelihood of malignancy, with Category 5 being highly suggestive of cancer. Mammograms have a specificity of 50-70% and sensitivity of 80-90% but can miss 10-15% of cancers. Ultrasound found multiple cysts and nodules in both breasts of a patient, categorized as probably benign (BI-RADS 3) with less than 2% chance of cancer. Follow-up in 6 months was recommended.
Mammography
Mammography is a type of medical imaging that uses low-dose x-rays to detect breast cancer. Key components of mammography equipment include an x-ray tube, compression plate, and breast support plate. The document discusses the materials used in mammography x-ray tubes, how compression helps improve image quality, and advances in digital mammography and tomosynthesis. Screening mammograms are used to detect cancer in women without symptoms, while diagnostic mammograms are used to diagnose abnormalities detected during screening.
Mammography presentation
Digital mammography has largely replaced film mammography. Digital mammography provides higher resolution images and allows radiologists to adjust brightness and magnification. Standard views include craniocaudal and mediolateral oblique views of each breast. Digital mammography is more accurate than film for premenopausal women under 50 with dense breasts but film may be slightly better for women over 65 with fatty breasts.
Mammography physics and technique
Mammography is the cornerstone of breast imaging and offers the necessary reliability to diagnose curable breast cancers. It involves using low-dose x-rays of the breast to detect tumors that are too small to feel. Digital mammography offers superior contrast resolution in dense breasts compared to conventional mammography but has lower spatial resolution, potentially missing some lesions. Mammography equipment includes an x-ray tube, compression device, and digital detectors to capture and process images, allowing diagnosis according to the BI-RADS assessment categories.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.SENSORY NEEDS B.SC. NURSING SEMESTER II.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.
