The value of screening mammograms is the mammograms really prevent breast cancer issue currently being discussed as a result of deaths.
If a woman had yearly mammograms beginning at age 40 years and continuing until 90, she will have received 20-40 rads.
With all this talk about recent controversy, there may be concerns about health insurance coverage of mammograms.
Information on free or low cost mammography screening programs is available through the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Information Service at 1-800-4CANCER (National Cancer Institute, 1988).

General issues are raised in a similar report stressing the importance of DDR and also the Brahimi Report referred to demobilisation and reintegration as key to post-conflict stability and to reducing the likelihood of conflict recurring.
In post-war peace-building support efforts, attention should be devoted to the people in the armies that fought the war.
Only then, on the basis of a real political solution of the conflict, will demobilisation, resettlement and reintegration support be natural---and often inevitable---components of post-war conflict transformation, rehabilitation and development.
Clarity about these programmes will provide the ex-combatants and their leaders confidence in the peace agreement and in their future in society.

This semester, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Freedom University (FU) plans to take part in the ACLU National Campus Campaign to educate our peers as to what "Pro-Choice Is.
In the years since Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court's 1973 landmark decision legalizing abortion, being "pro-choice" has come to mean more than supporting the legality of abortion.
Soberingly though, current public opinion research indicates that the we, generations born after Roe, take the right to reproductive choice for granted.
We therefore face great challenges today -- not only in communicating the importance and history of the fight for reproductive freedom, but also in motivating our peers, the generation that came after Roe, to rise to its defense.

In a recent survey of menopausal women,* 60% of respondents felt either confused (20%) or uncomfortable (40%) choosing an herbal supplement and only 14% of respondents had received guidance on choosing herbal remedies with their health professionals.
Like prescription drugs and foods, alternative products should list ingredients.
Products made by major food or drug companies are more likely to be made to high standards, under tight controls.
If you have questions or concerns about your menopause symptoms and the options available to treat them, make an appointment with your physician or another healthcare professional who is knowledgeable about menopause and herbals.

The centerpiece of this proposal is a voluntary outpatient prescription drug benefit.
All Medicare beneficiaries would be eligible for this new program, which the President described as "a drug benefit our seniors can afford at a price America can afford."1 This benefit, which would be phased in beginning in 2002, would (by 2008) pay for half of a beneficiary's drug expenditures up to $5000 annually,2 with no deductible assessed.
Pharmaceutical manufacturers would benefit from an outpatient drug benefit in Medicare to the extent that it would lead to more purchases of their products.
Employers who presently extend drug coverage to retirees might drop or pare back insurance once the government offers a drug benefit to the people in employer plans.
