If you are looking for a comprehensive course on mammography skill training and enhancement, this is the course for you! You will cover every aspect of a mammography procedure required to meet initial training requirements as outlined by MQSA . The topics cov-ered will include anatomy and physiology, hands-on positioning lab, film critique sessions and clinical participation. Quality control, pathology, special procedures and imaging the augmented breast are a must for the new mammography technologist and will be cov-ered in detail as highlights in this class. The instructional material provided is a great resource once you return to the workplace.
