  <title><![CDATA[Disparities in Prostate Cancer Screening]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Danny Hughes, professor in the School of Economics, was quoted in the article &quot;Disparities in Prostate Cancer Screening&quot; in <em>Axios</em> on Nov. 12, 2021. The article discussed an article Hughes co-authored detailing his team&#39;s research revealing racial and ethnic disparities in the use of prostate MRI exams following an elevated prostate-specific antigen blood test.</p>

<p>An excerpt:</p>

<blockquote>
<p>Ultimately, I think we&#39;re going to need to fundamentally change guidelines so that we can minimize invasive biopsies and make sure people are getting the care they need,&quot; Hughes said.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Hughes&#39; research was also covered on <em><a href="https://www.webmd.com/prostate-cancer/news/20211110/black-men-less-likely-to-get-follow-up-mri-when-test-suggests-prostate-cancer">WebMD</a>,</em>&nbsp;<a href="https://consumer.healthday.com/b-11-10-black-men-less-likely-to-get-follow-up-when-test-suggests-prostate-cancer-2655521093.html"><em>HealthDay</em></a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2021-11-10/black-men-less-likely-to-get-follow-up-mri-when-test-suggests-prostate-cancer"><em>US News</em></a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cancernetwork.com/view/racial-and-ethnic-disparities-identified-in-those-with-a-high-psa-undergoing-mri-imaging-for-prostate-cancer"><em>CancerNetwork</em></a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://axisimagingnews.com/radiology-products/imaging-equipment/mri/black-patients-24-less-likely-white-patients-prostate-mri-elevated-psa-score"><em>Axis Imaging</em></a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.auntminnie.com/index.aspx?sec=ser&amp;sub=def&amp;pag=dis&amp;ItemID=133979"><em>Aunt Minnie</em></a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.appliedradiology.com/communities/MR-Community/black-men-less-likely-to-get-prostate-mri-after-receiving-elevated-psa-score"><em>Applied Radiology</em></a>, and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.radiologybusiness.com/topics/care-delivery/prostate-cancer-disparities-mri-elevated-psa-test"><em>Radiology Business</em></a>.</p>
