The Duke Radiology Mammograms to MRI course provides clinicians with a practical framework for integrating these modalities into daily breast imaging practice.

The course emphasizes:
✔️ Accurate breast cancer detection
✔️ Appropriate screening strategies
✔️ BI-RADS interpretation
✔️ Correlation across imaging modalities
✔️ MRI utilization in breast imaging
✔️ Minimally invasive breast interventions
✔️ Imaging of high-risk lesions

Faculty focus on real-world clinical application to improve diagnostic confidence and patient care outcomes.

🎯 Educational Focus

Participants will strengthen their understanding of:

• Screening and diagnostic mammography
• Breast MRI interpretation and applications
• Ultrasound evaluation of breast abnormalities
• Breast biopsy planning and techniques
• High-risk lesion assessment
• Lymph node evaluation
• Tomosynthesis integration into clinical practice
• Multimodality breast imaging correlation

The course combines practical imaging interpretation with evidence-based breast imaging strategies.

🎥 Mammography & Screening
