Full Course: 32.25AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ for CME / CEU / CPD; (EXPIRES 04/30/25)
This course is intended for radiologists in academics or private practice, and involved in breast imaging and interventional procedures. Any physician (e.g. surgeons) working in the field of evaluation and treatment of breast disease who desires a more comprehensive understanding of the imaging aspects of evaluation.
Series 3 (TM3): Breast Imaging CME: Keep Pace with the Latest
Topics in Mammography is the eighth edition of our comprehensive evidence-based breast imaging program. This online CME course features engaging commentary of case-based topics and state-of-the-art literature updates. Under the direction of University of California, San Diego’s R. James Brenner, MD, JD, FACR, FCLM, speakers guide you in evaluating the potentials and pitfalls of both current and new imaging approaches. Learn at your own pace with presentations focused on specialized topics — artificial intelligence (AI), supplementary screening (including a special lecture on contrast enhanced mammography), the physics of DBT, imaging of young cancer patients — as well as:
New, more efficient approaches to traditional imaging work-ups
A comprehensive anatomy-pathophysiology discussion clarifying the correlation between imaging and histology
An extensive review of MRI and multifaceted applications
Insightful commentary on medical legal aspects for your practice, avoiding false negatives, communication, implications and consequences related to use of AI and DBT
Critical analyses of different imaging approaches and avoiding advocacy or bias
And more…
