TARGET AUDIENCE
This course is intended for radiologists and other health care providers involved in the screening, diagnosis and management of patients with breast cancer, as well as technologists involved in the acquisition of images in breast imaging.
COURSE PURPOSE
Learn how leading innovators in breast imaging are applying new 3D technology aimed at improving patient outcomes, expanding their clinical practice, and meeting new legislative requirements. Ask questions and discuss with these early adopters how they are making a difference in the early detection of breast cancer in women with dense breasts.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this live activity, the participant should be better able to:
  1. Identify the type of women who would benefit from adjunctive breast screening and why.
  2. Comprehend the clinical data supporting the use of automated 3D ultrasound for women with dense breast tissue.
  3. Implement an adjunctive screening service into routine clinical practice.
