Key Features and Techniques
Leading radiology professionals from five very different locations share their thoughts about coping with patient numbers, shifting expertise to rural areas, and becoming internationally visible.
MRI of the breast has an increasingly important role in routine clinical practice, offering excellent sensitivity for lesion detection and high specificity for lesion characterization. This four-part eLearning webinar includes structured presentations by Dr Umutlu on selected topics:
