Sarcoma Awareness Month is observed annually every July. ‘Sarcoma’ is the general term used to refer to a broad group of cancers that begin in the soft tissues and bones. Soft tissue sarcoma forms in the tissues that connect, support, and surround other body structures, including muscle, fat, blood vessels, nerves, tendons, and the lining of your joints. People can survive sarcoma if their cancer is diagnosed early, when treatments can be effective and before the sarcoma has spread to other parts of the body. It is vital that patients be referred to a specialist as early as possible.

Bladder cancer is a significant health concern that requires awareness and proactive measures for prevention. Here are the key risk factors and prevention tips to help you stay informed and protect your health.
Risk Factors of Bladder Cancer:
Smoking: The most significant risk factor, as harmful chemicals in tobacco smoke are absorbed into the bloodstream and filtered by the kidneys, eventually accumulating in the bladder.
Exposure to Chemicals: Certain industrial chemicals used in the dye, rubber, leather, and paint industries can increase the risk.
Chronic Bladder Inflammation: Long-term infections or irritations of the bladder lining can contribute to cancer development.
Age and Gender: The risk increases with age, and men are more likely to develop bladder cancer than women.
Family History: A family history of bladder cancer can increase your risk.
Previous Cancer Treatments: Treatments involving radiation or certain chemotherapy drugs can elevate the risk.
Personal History: Individuals who have had bladder cancer before are at a higher risk of recurrence.
Prevention of Bladder Cancer:
Avoid Smoking: Quit smoking to reduce exposure to harmful chemicals.
Limit Exposure to Harmful Chemicals: Follow safety protocols and use protective gear if you work with industrial chemicals.
Stay Hydrated: Drinking plenty of fluids, particularly water, can help dilute harmful substances in your bladder.
Healthy Diet: Consume a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, which contain antioxidants that may reduce cancer risk.
Regular Check-Ups: Early detection through regular medical check-ups can lead to early treatment and better outcomes.
Monitor Bladder Health: Pay attention to symptoms such as blood in urine, frequent urination, and pain during urination, and consult a doctor if they occur.
Remember: Early detection and lifestyle choices play crucial roles in preventing and managing bladder cancer. Stay informed and take proactive steps to protect your health.

What is Bladder Cancer? Bladder cancer primarily starts in the cells lining the inside of the bladder. It can occur in any part of the bladder and, if untreated, can spread to nearby tissues or other parts of the body. Signs and Symptoms of Bladder Cancer: Blood in Urine (Hematuria): The most common sign, it may cause urine to appear red or cola-colored, although it sometimes appears normal and blood is detected only on a lab test. Frequent Urination: An increased need to urinate more often than usual. Painful Urination: Discomfort or burning sensation during urination. Urgency: A sudden, strong need to urinate. Pelvic Pain: Discomfort or pain in the lower abdomen. Back Pain: Particularly in the lower back. Inability to Urinate: In some cases, individuals may experience difficulty passing urine. Early detection of bladder cancer significantly improves the chances of successful treatment. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s crucial to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation. Stay informed and proactive about your health.

Melanoma and Skin Cancer: Risk Factors and Prevention. Understanding the risk factors and taking preventive measures are crucial in the fight against melanoma and other types of skin cancer. Risk Factors: Excessive Sun Exposure: UV radiation from the sun is the leading cause of skin cancer. Frequent sunburns, especially during childhood, increase the risk. Tanning Beds: Artificial UV radiation from tanning beds is equally harmful and increases the risk of melanoma. Fair Skin: Individuals with fair skin, light hair, and light eyes are more susceptible due to lower levels of protective melanin. Family History: A family history of melanoma or other skin cancers can increase your risk. Personal History: Having had skin cancer before increases the likelihood of developing it again. Moles: Having many moles or atypical (dysplastic) moles can increase the risk of melanoma. Weakened Immune System: People with weakened immune systems, such as those on immunosuppressive medications, are at higher risk. Age: While melanoma can occur at any age, the risk increases as you get older. Prevention: Sun Protection: Use broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. Avoid Peak Sun: Seek shade and avoid direct sunlight between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV rays are strongest. Protective Clothing: Wear hats, sunglasses, and long-sleeved clothing to shield your skin from the sun. Avoid Tanning Beds: Stay away from tanning beds and opt for safer alternatives like self-tanning lotions. Regular Skin Checks: Perform monthly self-examinations to check for new or changing moles or spots. Schedule annual skin checks with a dermatologist. Stay Informed: Be aware of the signs and symptoms of melanoma and skin cancer to catch any potential issues early. By understanding the risk factors and taking proactive steps, we can significantly reduce the incidence of melanoma and skin cancer. Let's work together to spread awareness and protect our skin!

We're happy to announce the success of the "DR. GYAN P. LAL CME" on Abdominal Radiology! This incredible event was a collaborative effort between the Indian Radiological & Imaging Association and Basavatarakam Indo American Cancer Hospital and Research Institute. It was conducted by the Indian College of Radiology and Imaging and hosted by the Telangana State Chapter of IRIA.
Over the course of two days, attendees had the opportunity to explore a wide range of topics, from the imaging and staging of cervical cancer to the diagnosis and staging evaluation of pediatric abdominal cancers. We also delved into advanced imaging techniques, including those used in rectal malignancies, gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors, and multiparametric prostate MRI imaging.
Some of the event's highlights included engaging discussions on imaging in Crohn’s disease and its mimics, navigating the complexities of liver transplant donor work-up and post-transplant complications, and unraveling the mysteries of acute abdomen scenarios such as pancreatitis.
The sessions were not only informative but also provided a platform for valuable insights and knowledge exchange. From understanding the role of conventional radiology in modern practice to exploring the nuances of imaging various abdominal pathologies, there was something for everyone.
Overall, the CME served as a fantastic opportunity for radiology professionals to come together, share experiences, and stay updated on the latest advancements in the field. We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the speakers, organizers, and participants for their invaluable contributions to the success of this event!
