This session will provide an overview of current Molecular Breast Imaging (MBI) technology and recent evidence-based updates to use of MBI in clinical practice. Practical expert guidance in MBI technique and case interpretation will be provided. New developments in MBI will be discussed, including direct MBI-guided biopsy capability, further reductions in radiation dose, and breast cancer risk prediction.

Learning Objectives:

Understand how molecular breast imaging is performed and interpreted.
Discuss applications for MBI, including supplemental screening and risk assessment.
Understand the benefits and limitations of MBI.
