Supplemental ultrasound for dense breasts yields low PPV
By Kate Madden Yee
Sunday, November 30 | 11:15 a.m.-11:25 a.m. | SSA01-04 | Arie Crown TheaterThe positive predictive value (PPV) of screening ultrasound after mammography in women with dense breast tissue is low, which suggests that further studies are needed to identify those who really benefit from the exam, according to researchers from New York University.

Road to RSNA 2014: Women's Imaging Preview
By Kate Madden Yee
If you have questions about how women's imaging technology intersects with clinical practice, RSNA 2014 has answers. Presentations will cover everything from primary care physicians' awareness of breast density notification laws to whether breast MR can effectively rule out malignancy in BI-RADS 0 cases, as well as PET/MR and PET/CT for breast cancer follow-up, digital breast tomosynthesis, and breast ultrasound.
