Hi, I'm Dr. Lisa Mullen from the Breast Imaging
0:02
3 00:00:04,170 --> 00:00:06,410 Division at Johns Hopkins Medicine.
0:06
I'm going to be speaking about
0:08
diagnostic breast imaging.
0:10
We're going to review some of the issues
0:12
that we see most commonly in a day on the
0:14
Diagnostic Breast Imaging Service, and I'll
0:16
talk about how I would approach each case
0:20
based on the patient's age and presentation.
0:24
So here are our objectives.
0:27
I'm going to review cases that would be part
0:29
of a normal day on diagnostic breast imaging.
0:32
We'll discuss the appropriate evaluation
0:34
based on the patient's age and presentation,
0:37
and hopefully become more comfortable
0:39
with diagnostic breast imaging.
0:43
These are the topics that I'm planning to cover.
0:46
We're going to review palpable
0:47
lumps, pain, nipple discharge.
0:51
Skin changes and inflammation, recall from
0:54
screening mammography, surveillance after breast
0:57
cancer treatment, follow-up of probably benign
1:00
findings, and follow-up after benign biopsy.
1:04
And then we'll talk about special
1:05
populations, and this would be pregnant
1:09
and lactating women and male patients.
1:13
The sources of the protocols that I'm
1:15
going to be discussing really come
1:17
from the ACR appropriateness criteria.
1:19
And I'm going to lean very heavily on them today.
1:22
And also from the breast imaging literature.
1:25
And Johns Hopkins has breast imaging protocols
1:27
as well that we use daily in our practice.
1:30
So we'll be talking about them as well.
