2017 SBI/ACR Breast Imaging Symposium

NEW in 2017!

Refresher Course Recordings

You spoke, we listened! Since you can’t be in six places at once, we are offering access to recordings of all the concurrent afternoon refresher courses. Audio recordings will be synched with presenters’ slides so you can easily follow along with the sessions you couldn’t attend in person. Attendees who choose this option will receive access in the conference app automatically when the recordings are made available approximately 6-8 weeks after the Symposium.

Simply select the “Recordings” option when registering online for the Symposium.

*Additional fee applies; no CME credit for viewing recordings

Objectives

1. Explain the current science and recommendations regarding use of screening mammography.

3. Discuss the current pathology perspective on the biology of high risk lesions and of breast cancers.
   
4. Describe the current and evolving surgical and systemic treatment strategies for breast cancers.
   
5. Apply knowledge on a wide variety of breast imaging topics. Molecular breast imaging, radioactive seed localization, challenging cases, performance benchmarks, accreditation and economics will be included.
