Dear colleagues,
dear friends,

with 750+ registrants from 75+ countries around the globe our “Mammography Symposium: Spring edition” was a huge success.

Together with our friend László Tabar we exchanged ideas on the future of breast imaging in a truly engaging atmosphere.

Find out more about the programme and the background of our symposium on this page.

You will also find the videos of the event. Certainly the lecture of László Tabar is a highlight. A must see, we think!

Sincerely yours,
Pascal Baltzer and Matthias Dietzel

Objectives

Miscellaneous calcifications on the mammogram

  • Most calcifications on the mammogram are caused by benign processes
  • Determining the site of origin (outside the TDLUs and lactiferous ducts) is the first step toward the diagnosis
  • Understanding the underlying pathophysiology is needed to arrive at the correct differential diagnosis
  • The majority of miscellaneous calcifications are so characteristic that they do not need to be biopsied
  • The wide variety of miscellaneous calcifications shown in the lecture will raise the attendees’ competence in recognizing and dealing with these nuisances.
