MEETING DESCRIPTION:
This program is designed to provide a comprehensive review and update of both
established breast imaging modalities along with advances in state-of-the-art
techniques. A complete discussion – with emphasis on practical advice – of analog
and digital mammography, breast ultrasound and interventional techniques will
provide a strong foundation to advance to newer technologies. Identifying the role
and interpretation of breast MRI will be given special attention.

After attending the course, participants should be able to:
1. Accurately interpret a screening or diagnostic mammogram.
2. Determine the appropriate workup of a breast lesion.
3. Accurately interpret breast ultrasound exams.
4. Determine the correct follow-up after needle core biopsy of breast lesions.
5. Establish sensible indications and techniques for breast MRI exams for their
own facility.
6. Accurately interpret breast MRI exams.
7. Discuss the potential advantages and possible limitations of advanced
modalities for breast imaging.
