Dear AuntMinnie Member,
Advanced breast cancer patients with clinical anxiety may benefit from cannabidiol (CBD), according to our story that generated the most page views on AuntMinnie last week. Researchers from Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston found that women who ingested CBD prior to underdoing CT or PET scans for tumor burden assessment reported significantly lower clinical anxiety.
Fittingly, our final week in review of 2024 is also headlined by our article featuring our most highly viewed stories of the year. What made this year’s list? Click here to find out.
As for this week, our third most-popular article featured research showing that African American men responded more favorably than white men to radium-223 (Ra-223) dichloride treatment.
Also drawing attention are a story on job options for radiologists and an article on an AI algorithm that’s able to harmonize brain MRI data from different vendors.
