Full Video Course

 

Increased knowledge of risks and benefits of current screening modalities as well as new and standard biopsy methods are relevant and timely to the clinical breast radiologist. Radiologists should be able to manipulate digital breast tomosynthesis technology and its implementation in clinical practice. This course reviews new clinical research and outlines novel approaches to current and new techniques and technology. Current standards for breast MRI, and breast biopsy are also discussed, along with breast density and risk assessment models and risk stratification for the patient with dense breasts.
