In this program Dr. Laurie Fajardo shares her experience with the set-up and use of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in clinical practice. Participants will hear about system design, the impact on clinical performance, and how to best manage recall rates. In addition through carefully selected cases, Dr. Fajardo will share her approach to image interpretation and how one can manage DBT workflow effectively.
Educational Objectives:
At the completion of this activity, participants should be able to:
-
Explain the technology behind digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT).
-
Describe the impact DBT has on clinical performance.
-
Implement an approach to DBT interpretation.

In this second of a 3 Part Series, Dr. Laurie Fajardo discusses the benefits of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) for detecting and diagnosing breast cancer and things to consider when planning or implementing DBT into breast imaging practices.
Dr. Fajardo discusses the importance of radiation dose reduction with synthetic 2D, reviews the published literature on the performance of synthetic 2D mammography, and shares how DBT can impact data storage and network data transmission across your PACS and enterprise system.
Educational Objectives:
At the completion of this activity, participants should be able to:
-
Describe the efficacy of synthetic 2D from DBT.
-
Implement procedures for managing DBT data volumes and workflow.
-
Develop an approach to interpreting DBT images.

In this final segment of this 3-part series, Dr. Laurie Fajardo addresses the radiologist’s challenges associated with dense breast imaging and interpretation through discussion and case presentation of interval breast cancer. This includes issues associated with assigning breast cancer risk to breast density and qualitative versus quantitative methods for assessing, and reporting breast density and risk assessment.
Further Dr. Fajardo will discuss how to incorporate breast cancer risk assessment into your breast imaging practice and closes the program with a discussion on the current impact of Artificial Intelligence on breast imaging and how it can enhance workflow.
Educational Objectives:
At the completion of this activity, participants should be able to:
-
Articulate issues associated with assessing and reporting breast density and its associated cancer risk.
-
Explain the benefits of incorporating comprehensive risk assessment into breast imaging practices.
-
Implement the use of artificial intelligence to enhance breast imaging practice workflow and performance.

The Role of Digital Breast Tomosynthesis in Breast Cancer Screening, Diagnosis, and Continued Patient Management

Digital breast tomosynthesis, also known as 3D DBT first entered the clinical arena in 2011 when the FDA approved its use. Multiple studies have since shown that tomosynthesis is effective in both the screening and the diagnostic setting. This technology has quickly emerged as a practice-changing standard by increasing both sensitivity and specificity, thereby improving breast cancer detection and the clinical accuracy of mammograms.
This Expert Forum educational program focuses on the impact of digital breast tomosynthesis and the role it plays in all aspects of breast screening. In this program, you will hear from an expert panel consisting of four (4) healthcare professionals from various specialties; who are all involved in the diagnosis, treatment and care of breast cancer patients and who will share their clinical insights and experience.
Educational Objectives:
At the completion of this activity, participants should be able to:
-
Discuss the importance of breast screening mammography.
-
Compare the differences between 2D and 3D mammography.
-
Explain how the use of 3D DBT will benefit their patients.
-
Increase the collaboration between radiologists and referring physicians.
-
Implement best practices for concise communication across the continuum of care.
