Follow-up ultrasound OK for abnormal nodes on breast screening
By Kate Madden Yee
Wednesday, December 2 | 11:20 a.m.-11:30 a.m. | SSK02-06 | Room E450AFollow-up ultrasound -- rather than additional axillary imaging -- is just fine for tracking abnormal lymph nodes found on screening breast ultrasound, as long as they do not have an extranodal extension, according to researchers from South Korea.

FDG-PET/MRI enhances breast cancer diagnosis and staging
By Wayne Forrest
Tuesday, December 1 | 3:00 p.m.-3:10 p.m. | SSJ02-01 | Room E450AMultiparameter FDG-PET/MRI can improve the specificity of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI, which could lead to more-accurate staging of breast lesions and fewer false positives and unnecessary biopsies.

DBT improves biopsy outcomes
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, December 1 | 11:20 a.m.-11:30 a.m. | RC315-14 | Arie Crown TheaterIn this presentation, researchers will describe how adding digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) to 2D mammography appears to steadily improve the positive predictive value of biopsies.

DBT learning curve diminishes over time
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, December 1 | 11:10 a.m.-11:20 a.m. | RC315-13 | Arie Crown TheaterPractices that are beginning to use digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in combination with 2D mammography can expect to experience a learning curve, according to research conducted at Yale University. But it will diminish over time as radiologists become familiar with the technology.
