Program Format

The clinical application of MR-Mammography (MRM) in the last 20 years has shown that this imaging tool has had significant diagnostic advantages in the field of breast diagnosis, e.g. the proof of small breast cancers, the differentiation between scar and recurrent tumors, the detection of multifocality/multicentricity, the search for primary tumor, the delineation of implants, etc. MR-Mammography is used in clinical practice with increasing frequency. Therefore it becomes increasingly important to discuss and evaluate open questions about technical, biological, and pathophysiological aspects. Without detailed knowledge of the modality, there is a greater incidence of false-positive and false-negative diagnoses. There is an urgent need for intensive diagnostic training.

This three-day course, Principles of MR Mammography, covers all aspects of MR-Mammography and provides you with Dr. Werner Kaisers twenty years of research and clinical routine.

A hands-on workstation and Biopsy Coils will be available.
