🫀A New Era for Cardiovascular Health in Europe🫀

The @EU_Commission has launched the Safe Hearts Plan, the first-ever EU-wide strategy to tackle cardiovascular disease — still the leading cause of death in Europe.

The ESR strongly welcomes this landmark initiative, highlighting the critical role of medical imaging in early detection, prevention, and precision care. 🩻✨ From low-dose CT to cardiac MRI and AI-powered diagnostics, radiology is at the heart of this shift from reactive treatment to proactive prevention.

Together, the @EU_Commission and the medical imaging community are paving the way for earlier diagnoses, smarter prevention, and healthier hearts across Europe. 💙

Key takeaways from the review:
1. Male breast disease differs from female breast disease & requires dedicated diagnostic approaches.
2. Male breast cancer is rare but often diagnosed late, leading to poorer prognosis.
3. Screening should be targeted to high-risk male groups.

[ESR EU & International Affairs @EuEsr]

This Mens Health Awareness Month, our Patient Advisory Group is raising awareness about male breast diseases—a topic that doesn’t get enough attention.
Take a look at this recent review that underscores the need for better awareness and guidelines: https://t.co/ougNm1avYZ
