Breast Lipomodeling May Obscure Mammograms
2011-06-05
Many women are eager to take advantage of the promise of breast lipomodeling, the use of a patient's own fat to improve the size, shape, and fullness of the breasts. However, there is good reason to approach the procedure with caution as there remain some unanswered questions about its safety and effectiveness. Two recently published studies give conflicting answers about one of the most important questions: whether transplanted fat has the potential to obscure the results of a mammogram, delaying diagnosis of breast cancer.
The first study, published in the March 2011 ...

Injured Colorado Workers and the Taxability of Social Security Disability Benefits
2011-06-05
Injured workers face many challenges. The pain of being injured and the need to recover from the injury are already a lot to deal with. Financial uncertainty is also a factor, as many workers experience the anxiety of not knowing how they'll be able to cover all of their bills without a regular paycheck.
Workers' compensation and Social Security disability benefits are supposed to ease that financial strain. But those benefits don't always stretch as far as an injured worker really needs them to. For that reason, a recent decision by the U.S. Tax Court on whether workers' ...
