Current Practice and Variation in Same-Day Services in Breast Imaging: A Multi-Institutional National Survey of the Society of Breast Imaging Membership.

Objective: The availability of same-day services in breast imaging is an important topic given potential advantages for timely diagnoses and patient experiences, but there are potential barriers that lead facilities to not offer these services. We sought to understand current practice patterns and radiologist perspectives on offering same-day services.

Methods: The Society of Breast Imaging (SBI) Patient Care & Delivery Committee developed a 19-question survey that was emailed to all 3449 active members of the SBI in May 2023.

Abbreviated Breast MRI Utilization: A Survey of the Society of Breast Imaging.

Objective: To survey Society of Breast Imaging (SBI) membership on their use of abbreviated breast MRI to understand variability in practice patterns.

Methods: A survey was developed by the SBI Patient Care and Delivery committee for distribution to SBI membership in July and August 2021. Eighteen questions queried practice demographics and then abbreviated breast MRI practices regarding initial adoption, scheduling and finances, MRI protocols, and interpretations.

Evaluating Fallopian Tube Patency: What the Radiologist Needs to Know.

Impaired tubal patency accounts for up to 35% of cases of subfertility and infertility. Hysterosalpingography (HSG) or hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (HyCoSy) represents a first-line test in evaluating fallopian tube patency. Despite the association of HSG with ionizing radiation, HSG is a reference standard in assessing fallopian tube patency and tubal conditions such as tubal occlusion, salpingitis isthmica nodosa, and hydrosalpinx.
