While the mortality rate for breast cancer in the U.S. has significantly declined from its peak in 1989, incidence among younger women has steadily increased each year since 2001, according to the American Cancer Society.

Born with congenital heart disease, Christin Murphy, 41, was familiar with cardiology appointments, stress tests, and surgeries.

A new study co-led by a Saint Luke's researcher found that EMS practices for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) are different in predominantly Black/Hispanic areas compared to mostly white areas.

After years of life-threatening cardiac episodes and chest pain, Cindy Mager, 59, became the first Saint Luke's patient to undergo this innovative, life-saving procedure.

New research shows the sooner a lay rescuer starts CPR on a person having a cardiac arrest at home or in public, the better the chances of saving the person's life and protecting their brain function.

According to the National Cancer Institute, about 40% of women have dense breast tissue, which makes it more difficult to find breast cancer early.

A new study provides evidence that even among those who receive CPR, Black or female individuals are less likely to survive an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest than White or male individuals.

Dr. Mary Mitchell, chief of breast radiology at Saint Luke's, talks to KSHB about what dense breast tissue is and how it impacts your risk of developing breast cancer.

We are talking with Marji Stark, lactation consultant at Saint Luke’s East Hospital, about the breastfeeding journey for mothers who have prematurely given birth to their babies.

Survival rates for Black women are far worse after bystander CPR than for white men, according to a study published this month.
