This video presented by Dr. Linda Han demonstrates a sentinel lymph node biopsy. The patient had Grade 2 invasive ductal carcinoma at 1 ocl where clinical exam did not reveal the mass. In this example, the surgeon uses a TruNode™ Single-use Gamma Probe System.  

This brief video demonstrates a sentinel lymph node biopsy using the TruNode™ Single-use Gamma Probe System on a patient with Grade 2 invasive lobular carcinoma of the upper inner quadrant. Presented by Dr. Linda Han

Improved technology has created multiple new ways of localizing non-palpable breast lesions.  This activity will educate surgeons on the various options available for wireless localization.  We will educate the surgeon on choosing which system works best for their patient, as well as the techniques that need to be used to perform these procedures in their practice. Upon completion of this lecture, participants will be able to: Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of wire vs wire-free breast tumor localization for surgical guidance​ Describe techniques for wire-free localization in the breast​ Explain the use of wire-free localization and neoadjuvant treatment​ Understand the impact of wire-free localization on oncoplastic breast surgery techniques   FACULTY/PROGRAM DIRECTOR Valerie Gorman, MD, FACS

In this four-part video course, expert faculty will discuss different types of findings and tips and trips with the Affirm® Prone Biopsy System. Faculty will discuss microcalcifications, architectural distortions, tomosynthesis only findings, and challenging cases. Module 1: Microcalcifications - Dr. Terri Gizienski reviews sample patient cases involving biopsy of microcalcifications. Module 2: Architectural Distortions - This module reviews cases in which the Affirm® Prone Biopsy System and its tomosynthesis guided technology are used to improve the procedure of identifying and biopsying areas of architectural distortions. Module 3: Tomo Only Findings - This module discusses the benefit of the 3D™ biopsy guidance system and describes the approach for biopsy of a lesion found only by tomosynthesis. Module 4: Challenging Cases - This module discusses challenging cases in which the Affirm® Prone Biopsy System helped improve the efficiency of the biopsy procedure.  

This ASRT approved online course, held by Hologic, is for technologists who want to earn one (.5) Continuing Education (CE) credit. This 30-minute course will give the participant only an overview of Hologic’s I-View™ software for Contrast Enhanced 2D Imaging procedures.  

This ASRT approved online course held by Hologic is for technologists who wish to earn one (1) Continuing Education (CE) credit. This one-hour course covers the basics of Hologic 3D MAMMOGRAPHY™ technology.  

This ASRT approved online course held by Hologic is for technologists who wish to earn one (1) Continuing Education (CE) credit. Please note that only 0.5 of the 1 CEU credit earned may be applied towards the MQSA 8-hour tomosynthesis modality requirement. This one-hour course covers 3D MAMMOGRAPHY™ with the use of C-View™ software and Affirm™ Tomo guided breast biopsy procedure. It is recommended that you enroll in our Introduction to Breast Tomosynthesis for Technologists online course prior to participating in this course.

In this presentation, leading breast radiologist, Linda Greer, MD, will provide insight on how to accurately localize lesions and microcalcifications seen in tomosynthesis breast imaging. Provided by Hologic    

In this video, led by Hologic's Andrew Smith, PhD, Vice President of Breast and Skeletal Heath Research and Development in collaboration with Ashwini Kshiragar, PhD, Chief Scientist of Clinical Solutions, the advancements in synthesized breast imaging, Intelligent 2D™ are discussed. The video explains the motivation for development of the next generation of synthesized 2D images and describes how to transition from C-View™ to Intelligent 2D™.
