Staying knowledgeable of how a woman’s breast density affects imaging is critical, and knowing whether a patient has dense breast can influence your use of preoperative MRI. Investigators from University of Pennsylvania have examined in what circumstances this modality and technique works best. We explore their findings in an article that will appear later this week.

Corporatization is not new in radiology, but the trend is definitely growing. Diagnostic Imaging spoke this week with Dr. Rich Heller, associate chief medical officer, and Dr. Nina Kottler, vice president of clinical operations, with Radiology Partners about how corporatization benefits radiology as an industry and the impacts it can have at the local level. Keep an eye out for their video interview this week.
