MEETING DESCRIPTION:
The MTMI Regional Mammography Course for Technologists continues its reputation as the premier training course for mammography technologists. This comprehensive course uses lecture sessions, radiographs and hands-on training sessions with live models to enhance your skills and understanding of the mammography process. Quality control, technologist responsibilities for quality assurance, positioning with breast implants as required by MQSA, and film critique are also covered.

These sessions are designed to meet FDA regulatory requirements and for registry exam preparation. The Mammography Quality Standard Act (MQSA) mandates that technologists complete 40 hours of documented training specific to mammography. In addition, 25 mammography exams (not included in this course) must be performed under the direct supervision of a qualified mammographer and can be counted toward the 40 hour training requirement.

This program provides Category A continuing education credit approved by the ASRT. 3 day course provides 27.5 hours of credit and the 5 day course provides 40 hours. A certificate of attendance will be provided for each individual upon completion of the course. All attendees must attend the entire course to receive full credit. Credit from various licensure states has also been applied for.
