FDA Proposed Rule on Density Inform, Are You Ready?

June 10, 2019 by JoAnn Pushkin

DB-i Executive Director’s Article in Radiology Today:
Do you or any of your colleagues have questions about the history and status of the national breast density reporting standard? Will health care providers be “conversation ready” to help patients understand the screening and risk implications of dense breast tissue when the federal standard is in effect? An article in Radiology Today by DB-i Executive Director JoAnn Pushkin, Breast Density 2019 – Are You Ready?, is a useful guide to understanding and preparing for the implementation of national breast density inform regulations.
