COURSE OBJECTIVESUpon completion of this conference, the participant will be able to:• Understand the differences in
pre-test probabilities and guidelines for interpretation between diagnostic, supplemental screening, and MRI-directed indications for breast ultrasound
• Select the most appropriate ultrasound equipment, machine settings, and scan techniques for better diagnostic evaluations
• Identify and characterize areas of clinical, mammographic, screening ultrasound, or MRI concern using ultrasound, and to understand the anatomic and histopathologic basis for ultrasound appearances
• Identify sonographic findings that are suspicious for malignancy
• Classify most breast cysts that are not simple as benign
• Understand the role of ultrasound in diagnosis and guiding biopsy in patients presenting with nipple discharge
• Recognize the range of normal appearances for breast implants and the range of abnormal appearances of implants
• Enhance ultrasound-guided breast biopsy and interventional skills
• Utilize the new ductal versus lobular classification system of breast malignancies for better diagnosis, staging, and use as biomarkers
• Understand the appropriate role for supplemental bilateral whole breast ultrasound as well as other ancillary imaging modalities in women with negative but dense mammograms
• Improve detection and correct classification of small invasive breast cancers while minimizing false positive ultrasound examinations
• Learn how to overcome the head-winds in establishing a supplemental whole breast ultrasound program in women with dense breast
