SUMMARY:Over Diagnosis in Medicine
DESCRIPTION:\nIn Medicine\, doing tests that are unlikely to help is dan
 gerous enough when the tests find a problem that isn’t really there or f
 ail to find one that is\, but an even greater danger is finding a disease 
 that really is there but would have been best ignored.\nDr. Jerry Hoffman\
 , Emeritus professor of medicine at UCLA has spent his career educating ph
 ysicians and others on how to thoughtfully analyze medical research studie
 s to help us determine what tests and treatments actually benefits patient
 s\, and which may cause some degree of harm. Dr. Hoffman will explain why 
 in large areas of medicine\, less is more and why much of the advice you h
 ear about screening and prevention is far more likely to harm you than hel
 p you. He will also explain how “advanced technology” can make this pr
 oblem even worse.
