Presentations
Contrast-Enhanced Mammography (CEM) and CEM Biopsy: Which Patients and What to Do
Michael Morris
This presentation will focus on patient selection for Contrast-Enhanced Mammography (CEM) as well as the management of suspicious lesions with CEM biopsy.
At the end of this presentation, participants will be able to:
- TBC
Management of Axilla
Carolyn Flegg
This presentation offers a concise overview of the surgical management of the axilla in women with breast cancer, as well as the role of image-based axillary lymph node staging in light of the ACOSOG Z011, ACOSOG Z1071 and SOUND trials.
At the end of this presentation, participants will be able to:
- Summarize the clinical management of the axilla in early stage breast cancer patients.
- Discuss the evolving role of axillary imaging in breast cancer staging.
Second Look Ultrasound after MRI
Rachel Fleming
This presentation will review tips and tricks to improve your accuracy with second look ultrasound after MRI in breast screening.
At the end of this presentation, participants will be able to:
- List the most important breast MRI sequences to review for second-look ultrasound
- Utilize landmarks on MRI to aid in breast lesion detection.
- Describe how breast lesion characteristics may change between the two modalities (MRI and second-look ultrasound).
