Dr Wendy Woodward & Kathy LaTour

Dr Wendy Woodward, a radiation oncologist and section chief of the breast cancer radiation oncology program at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, was interviewed by Kathy LaTour of Cure Magazine at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium this week, SABCS13. LaTour wrote an article that was published today, December 12th, 2013, discussing Woodward’s presentation on Inflammatory Breast Cancer and why getting the news out there about IBC is so important to all of us.

“Physicians don’t recognize it,” Woodward says. “And when you go through the SEER data, you can see many are not coded correctly–or the physician thought if you call it metastatic, what difference does it make to correctly identify it if it’s inflammatory. That hurts us because they think it is so few people.”
