They break down myths about mammograms, thermography, and dense breast tissue, and discuss how financial incentives often fuel harmful disinformation online.Dr. Roth shares her journey into social media, the challenges of speaking out against misinformation, and why educating patients before they enter the exam room is more important than ever.
