By definition, cancers invoke new bloo d-vessel growth — a feature that is exploited by contrast-enhanced M RI. It also sets the modality apart in the range of tools used to diag nose and stage breast cancer. Yet, learning the MRI appearance of diff erent histologies and differentiating them from benign causes of tissu e enhancement is a nuanced and complex task.\n\nThis course incorporat es a detailed synopsis of breast MRI science, technique, and interpret ation based on more than 20,000 cases of experience. It also explains its place within the milieu of total breast imaging and care. Numerous “live” case discussions are included to supplement the course lec tures.\n\nWHO SHOULD ATTEND\nRadiologists\nMammographers\nBreast image rs\nBreast surgeons\nMRI specialists\nOB GYN’s\n\nCOURSE OBJECTIVES\ nParticipants who complete this activity should be able to:\n\n• Vas tly improve their interpretation of breast MRI and the individual diag nostic entities allowing for practice improvement and better patient o utcomes.\n• Gain a better understanding of the screening and diagnos tic modalities' strengths and weaknesses.\n• Come away with greater knowledge of the applications, reimbursement, and outcomes of breast M RI.\n\n\nPHYSICIANS\nProScan Imaging Education Foundation is Accredite d with Commendation by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medica l Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physic ians.\n\nACCREDITATION\nThis activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essentials and Standards of ACCME.\n\nDESIGNAT ION\nProScan Imaging Education Foundation designates this educational activity for a maximum of 24AMA PRA (Physician Recognized Award) Categ ory 1 Credits.™ Physicians should only claim credit commensurate wit h the extent of their participation.\n\nFACULTY\nStephen J.
