What, when, why? Multimodal imaging for state-of-the-art breast diagnostics

Experience the full spectrum of breast imaging on MAMMOVISTA B.smart and a wide-angle tomo biopsy.

Recognize the advantages of basic imaging methods such as mammography and ultrasound, establish when they are sufficient and when additional diagnostic procedures like breast tomosynthesis, or breast MRI are required – the full spectrum of multimodal diagnostics on one workplace. And what if a biopsy is required after all?
Dr. Clara Park will discuss up to 15 cases on differential breast diagnostics and show various tomo biopsies of calcifications, masses and architectural distortions including their histologic outcomes.

Improving Breast Cancer Outcome through Innovation in Breast Ultrasound

Meet two experienced radiologists who made of breast care their mission, trying every day to embrace new solutions to improve their patient care and experience.

Prof Aribal leads a multimodality breast imaging unit in Istanbul. His department embraces a multidisciplinary approach in designing a personalized breast care patient pathway. Latest innovations in Ultrasound include the adoption of Automated Breast Ultrasound (ABUS) for dense breast, and the most recent 2D SWE and KOIOS DS AI-based tool for decision support on his LOGIQ E10 ultrasound device. He will go through a case gallery showing how the introduction of latest ultrasound innovations could impact on his patients’ outcomes within a personalized care management,

Dr Scaperrotta is the leading radiologist in the Breast Radiology Department of the National Cancer Center in Milan. Ultrasound imaging is at the centre of the hub of his patients’ management, in combination with other imaging modalities. He will guide you through a case gallery showing how a multiparametric ultrasound approach including the latest innovations, as KOIOS DS, help him make more confident decisions in terms of patient therapy and follow up.

Successful Implementation Strategies for Automated Breast Ultrasound: A Practical Approach to Improve Breast Care Outcome

Implementing an innovation in the breast care pathway might involves changing the department workflow and a new learning curve. Join two of our ABUS experts to learn about their strategy to successfully implement the Automated Breast Ultrasound.

Dr. Athina Vourtsi is a dedicated breast radiologist based in Athens, Greece. She is the founder of the Diagnostic Mammography Center and the founding President of the Hellenic Breast Imaging Society. As a member of the Medical Advisory Board and European Liaison of DenseBreast-Info.org she has been working on launching DBI-s efforts into Europe.
