Details: In this session tailored specially for general physicians, we dive deep into the evolving landscape of breast cancer detection, with a sharp focus on the revolutionary role of 3D Tomosynthesis. This advanced imaging technique, often described as a game-changer in radiology, offers unparalleled clarity and precision, particularly in detecting early-stage breast cancer that may elude conventional 2D mammography.
We will explore the science behind 3D Tomosynthesis, how it overcomes the limitations of traditional imaging, and its critical impact on improving diagnostic accuracy, especially in patients with dense breast tissue. The talk will also cover practical guidelines for general physicians on when to recommend 3D Tomosynthesis, interpreting its results, and integrating this technology into routine clinical practice. By the end of this session, physicians will be empowered with knowledge to make informed decisions, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes through earlier detection and more personalized care.
