Mammography Continuing Education (CE) Credits
Our Mammography Training Course is an online mammography course for radiologic technologists by expert radiologic technologists. It is intended to cover the majority of topics that may be encountered during daily practices.
This course addresses mammography for radiologic technologists, covering the fundamental principles of mammography, as well as the anatomy, physiology, pathologies (benign and malignant), and epidemiology of the breast, mammary classifications, the male breast particularities, and the treatment of breast cancer.
In addition, this course focuses on mammographic techniques and protocols, covering the different technologies deployed, defining the quality control guidelines in analogue and digital mammograms, introducing the patient positioning techniques and the artifacts that may be encountered.
