Stoked to be sharing our #Twitter research on #scanxiety! >2000 users want you to know scanxiety is real. Does that scan really need to happen on your birthday? We can do more to reduce scanxiety 🙏 @drprunellab @BelindaKiely @hagsie @zo_116

@DrCraigGedye @Nzeps @NicStraiton In the process of developing a SOP at our site to help our clinician researchers & trials staff navigate their roles & responsibilities

Thanks to this amazing team, I am probably one of the few people who enjoyed doing my PhD in the midst of COVID! Excited to complete the first step of many towards reducing #scanxiety in people with #cancer

@LKasherman @nhmrc @janette_vardy @CindyTa09878114 @Joanne472 @AshMalalasekera Congratulations!! Fantastic news :)

@DrScanxiety @hagsie @drprunellab @BelindaKiely @CStatsAU Great idea! Scanxiety is universal across cancer types & around the world - single institution solutions can only help a few. I will send you a DM!

@DrScanxiety Hoping to have an answer about this soon! #scanxiety @hagsie @drprunellab @BelindaKiely @CStatsAU

Excited to post on Twitter about @zo_116's Twitter #MOGAASM21 poster- showing that #scanxiety is talked about in negative terms & more needs to be done in this space. A novel way of understanding important issues to the cancer community. Amazing work, Zoe!

Scanxiety is not a new concept, and now we have data to show it. 55% of people with w/ advanced cancer (n=222) experience scanxiety around a CT scan. For anyone out there having scans: Scanxiety is real. You are not alone.

@drjenlim @hagsie The preferred way to receive results probably varies & is a Q in our longitudinal study on #scanxiety. For patients to have automated results, we need a system that supports it - from radiology staffing & jargon-free reports. Another solution- docs relaying results faster!

Negative experiences around a scan were not always recognised as #scanxiety & coping strategies were not recognised as coping strategies for scanxiety. Thank you to our participants who have helped us understand this problem - so relevant to many with cancer

First PhD paper showing scanxiety is measured all over the shop with different tools & at different times. More consistency is needed so we can understand scanxiety better & talk about it clearly with our patients. Many thanks to @drprunellab @BelindaKiely @hagsie @CStatsAU

Great way to end the first year of the PhD. We probably would've smashed the record if @drprunellab was there! @janette_vardy @hagsie @BelindaKiely @AntoniaPearson_ @CStatsAU @DrChristinaTeng @EmmaKCarson #medonc #phdlife #escaperoom

@hagsie @drprunellab @BelindaKiely #scanxiety is real for patients & for doctors. How much of our scan practices (eg frequency and type of scan) is evidence-based, leads to changes in management & provides better outcomes for our patients? Not always easy to decide for individual patients based on population data

A new chapter begins! #FRACP #medonc #yoga

So lucky to be part of the Concord family- great place to nurture young doctors & no shortage of role models
