Impact of Simulation-Based Training on Radiology Trainee Education in Ultrasound-Guided Breast Biopsies.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to determine the impact of a simulation-based ultrasound-guided (USG) breast biopsy training session on radiology trainee procedural knowledge, comfort levels, and overall procedural confidence and anxiety.

Methods: Twenty-one diagnostic radiology residents from a single academic institution were recruited to participate in an USG breast biopsy training session. The residents filled out a questionnaire before and after the training session.

Is breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) useful for diagnosis of additional sites of disease in patients recently diagnosed with pure ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS)?

Purpose: To determine if breast MRI is useful for detecting additional or invasive sites of disease in patients initially diagnosed with pure DCIS.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective review of women diagnosed with pure DCIS who underwent a breast MRI for evaluation of extent of disease was performed at a single institution from January 2013 to April 2015. Data analysis included imaging (mammography, ultrasound and MRI) and pathology characteristics (histology and biomarker status) of the primary DCIS as well as descriptors for the additional sites of disease incidentally found by breast MRI.

Detection of multicentric and contralateral breast cancers on MRI based on primary cancer biomarker status: will this change surgical or medical management?

Purpose: The utilization of staging preoperative breast MRI in biopsy-proven cancer patients varies based on institution and individual clinicians. It is unclear whether primary breast cancer subtype influences a clinician's decision to obtain a preoperative breast MRI based on likelihood of multicentric or contralateral disease, which may change surgical or medical management. Our purpose was to compare the four main breast cancer subtypes in our patient population (i.
