Eskenazi Health's Automated Breast Ultrasound (ABUS) Tool could help reduce the misdiagnosis of breast cancer.

The American Cancer Society estimates 268,000 women will receive a breast cancer diagnosis this year. And 40 percent of them have dense breast tissue that can make diagnoses more challenging. WFYI’s Terri Dee spoke with Dr. Lauren Harry, a breast radiologist at Eskenazi Health, about a new tool that aims to change that.
