Education & Training

This 6-minute video is specifically designed for technologists, providing an in-depth overview of the preparation and execution of a Contrast-Enhanced Mammography Exam. The video includes detailed demonstrations of the gantry, injector, contrast media, and other essential components. This concise and informative guide is a valuable resource for enhancing your understanding and expertise.

This activity, hosted by World Class CME, is designed to bring awareness to radiologists, mammography technologists and administrators about mammography screening compliance gaps and possible causes of the lack of compliance. At the completion of the course the participant will be able to: Discuss the broader significance of diversity and inclusion in mammography, provide an overview of current mammography services and how they cater to diverse populations, understand statistics and studies that show disparities in mammography access and outcomes among different demographic groups, identify common barriers that populations face in accessing mammography services and discuss solutions and strategies to overcome these barriers, discuss best practices to overcome barriers in mammography, explore current and future innovations in mammography that could enhance diversity and inclusion, addressing gaps and improving care for all populations.   Speakers: Amy K.

This activity, hosted by World Class CME, is designed to provide an in-depth overview of contrast enhanced mammography (CEM), its applications, and the necessary skills for technologists to effectively utilize it in clinical practice. Expert presenters will discuss how CEM differs from traditional mammography, will delve into its benefits and limitations, and will discuss situations where CEM is particularly useful. Expect to take a detailed look at the equipment needed for CEM, in particular the injector and mammography system. Attendees will leave this session with an understanding of CEMs space in clinical practice, clinical benefits, workflow changes and efficiencies, and how CEM can expand patient offerings, ultimately enhancing the quality of patient care. This course is good for 1 Category A CEU. Speakers: Shonda Butler RT (CT) MR) CIIP Bayer Clinical Strategic Manager Terri Shaffer, R.T. (R)(M) Hologic Field Product Specialist   The American Society of Radiologic Technologists Credit has approved this activity for 1 CE, Category A credit.  

This 10-minute video is designed to give an overview of the features and benefits of the GAID 2.0 Software for Radiologists.

An impactful roundtable discussion featuring three distinguished radiologists–Dr. Tchaiko Parris, Dr. Susan Shamburger, and Dr. Colleen Madden.   Expert panelists delve into the advantages of state-of-the-art breast biopsy technology in radiology, and explore how advancements in their radiology suites are transforming patient care, and much more.

In this CME presentation, Dr. Smith-Foley will discuss preoperative localization techniques for breast and axillary lesions and how they have evolved to include both wire and non-wire methods, the latter of which include radioactive seeds, radar reflectors, magnetic seeds, and radiofrequency identification tag localizers. efficiencies. Upon completion of this lecture, participants will be able to: Discuss the benefits of de-coupling localization and surgery Understand how emerging tools and techniques improve efficiency and accuracy with image guided localization Optimize workflow using image guided localization and interdisciplinary collaboration   Stacy Smith-Foley, MD Medical Director The Breast Center at CARTI Little Rock, AR   World Class CME designates this enduring material for a maximum of 1 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.

Dr. Chapel will discuss her clinical experience in pathology workflow and workflow efficiencies with a Faxitron® Path Specimen Radiography System. Cases in Breast Pathology and select unanticipated scenarios will be presented.   Learning Objectives: • To provide foundational understanding of specimen radiography in breast applications • Identify the return on investment with incorporating this specimen radiography system in a clinic setting • Discuss how this technology may impact workflow   Faculty: Ellen Chapel, MD

This video is designed to improve understanding of Hologic ClarityHD+ imaging technology, including High Resolution imaging and 3DQuorum® imaging technology, and how these technologies can positively impact patient care, workflows, and radiologist efficiencies.

Understanding the benefits and disadvantages of different localization technique for excision non palpable breast excisions will assist patients in their cancer diagnosis journey. Upon completion of this lecture, participants will be able to: 1. Evaluate the current practice of breast localization 2. Consider the available localization technologies to best suit ones practice 3. Improve patients satisfaction, outcomes and work flow for excision of nonpalpable breast lesion/cancers.   Steven Cai, MD, FACS Clinical Assistant Professor of Surgery Mount Sinai Icahn School of Medicine New York, NY   World Class CME designates this enduring material for a maximum of 1 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.
