Summary
DCIS remains a management problem in breast disease. Although management recommendations have not stabilized, MRI can now improve diagnosis and predictive value. Dr. Harms, a pioneer in the development of MRI of the Breast, offers seasoned judgment of the spotty initial MRI data on DCIS. He then reviews specific current improvements in technology to improve the sensitivity with improved resolution and interpretive criteria, with illustrative examples showing recent technical contributions to the diagnosis, with insight into the wide spectrum and emerging information on the predictive value of the diagnosis.
Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:
• Apply results of breast care-imaging research to clinical practice.
• Apply knowledge and skills relevant to clinical practice of breast care-imaging.
• Evaluate the results of breast imaging quality improvement measures to improve patient care.
• Evaluate practical approaches to breast intervention for adaptation to local practice.
