Description:
This course is designed for radiologists who find themselves challenged by the new practical issues of performing successful high-quality breast imaging in a changing medical environment. This year, we have redesigned the course to better meet every radiologist’s ongoing breast imaging needs:
FOUR GREAT WAYS TO MEET ALL YOUR INITIAL TRAINING REQUIREMENTS FOR MQSA, FDA, AND ACR ACCREDITATION IN MAMMOGRAPHY, BREAST MRI, TOMOSYNTHESIS, & WHOLE BREAST ULTRASOUND, ALL IN ONE CONFERENCE!
Attendees have a CHOICE of attending the didactic track encompassing all breast imaging modalities, and/or any or all of the FOUR interactive workshop tracks, all taught by a world class faculty: 1.In MAMMOGRAPHY (300 unknown cases read by each attendee at the workstation) [up to 10 hours of CME] 2.In MRI (Society of Breast MRI Hands-on 200 case review at the workstation) [up to 10 hours of CME] 3.In TOMOSYNTHESIS (8 hours of interactive instruction – includes tomosynthesis 200 cases to read at the workstation), and 4.In WHOLE BREAST ULTRASOUND (5 Hour training course plus 4 hour prerequisite self-study prior to hands-on session).
By doing so, attendees can meet the 240 case initial recertification requirements in mammography under MQSA, meet the 100 cases MRI interpretation requirements for ACR accreditation in breast MRI, and meet the initial 8 hours of training required by FDA for interpretation of Tomosynthesis cases!
Attendees can choose to attend only the didactic track, OR can combine the didactic track with ANY OR ALL of these interactive tracks! (They also may choose to attend only the 8 hour Tomosynthesis track. In order to receive the 8 hour certification in tomosynthesis, FDA requires 8 hours of prior training in digital mammography. If you do not have prior training in digital mammography, this can be fulfilled by also taking the digital mammography workshop track.)
Attendees can also choose to attend only the Automated Whole Breast Ultrasound track on the afternoon of Sunday August 5 (the day before the course formally begins).
A special case review session on opto-acoustic imaging has also been added this year. There is no fee for this session, but separate registration to attend is required.
The extremely popular and successful hands-on workshops teaching stereotactic, ultrasound-guided, MR needle biopsy techniques, and Whole Breast Ultrasound featuring the latest equipment from a wide spectrum of vendors, will also again be offered and will be included as part of the didactic lecture track.
