SUMMARY:Stereotactic Breast Biopsy Training
DESCRIPTION:Stereotactic Breast Biopsy Training\nFeb 11-13, 11\nMilwau
 kee, WI\n\nAn Intensive 2 1/2 Day Training Program\n\nCourse Overview\
 n\nStereotactic breast biopsy is used to obtain pathologic information
  from mammographic areas of suspicion. When a mass, microcalcification
 s, or area of abnormal tissue change exist; stereotactic breast biopsy
  offers a minimally invasive alternative to open surgical biopsy often
  before a mass develops. This course offers the\nattendee the opportun
 ity to learn the basics, as well as the tricks of the trade, from an e
 xperienced technologist with multi-vendor competence. MTMI and\nour in
 structors are excited and willing to share this knowledge to help brid
 ge the gaps in training so that intelligent performance becomes your d
 aily mode of operation. Supervised simulation and hands-on training wi
 th phantoms, live-models, and biopsy devices make this course refreshi
 ngly unique. Critical thinking becomes possible once attendees develop
  an understanding of why and how these procedures are done rather than
  “this is how we have always done it”. In addition to covering qua
 lity assurance and patient documentation, the two and a half day cours
 e reviews the ACR accreditation requirements and fulfills the credits 
 required for accreditation.\n\nCourse Objectives\nAt the completion of
  this course,\nparticipants will be able to:\n\n• Explain when stere
 otactic biopsy is preferred over other biopsy options.\n• Identify v
 endors and recognize the products currently available.\n• Discuss co
 mplete patient workup prior\n• to the procedure.\n• Position a pat
 ient properly for\n• stereotactic biopsy.\n• Demonstrate how to pr
 operly target a lesion.\n• Formulate problem solving skills when fac
 ed with difficult situation scenarios.\n• Simulate biopsy procedures
  start to finish\n• to include room setup, tray setup, infection con
 trol and biopsy device setup through execution of phantom sample.\n•
  Discuss the importance of QA and ACR requirements.\n\nFaculty\n\nJudy

 services including radiologic technologists, mammographers, sonographe
 rs, breast biopsy coordinators, breast health clinicians, nurses and m
 edical imaging managers.\n\nCourse Credit\n\nThis course provides 18.5
  Category A credits approved by the ARRT. A certificate of attendance 
 will be provided for each individual upon completion of the course. Al
