December 7, 2020 by JoAnn Pushkin

Educational Needs of Referring Physicians

In the current issue of Radiology Today, our OB/GYN Medical Advisory Board members, Drs. Elizabeth Etkin-Kramer and DaCarla M. Albright, share their insights on the educational needs of referring providers, Women’s Imaging – Educational Needs of Referring Physicians in Managing Patients with Dense Breasts. Included is a Case Study in Education by Dr. Toula Destounis that details how her center addressed referring provider and community education when New York’s density inform law went into effect.
