Trained Radiographers May Be a Solution for the Radiologist Shortage (IMAGE)
Caption
Mammograms in a 50-year-old woman undergoing her first screening mammographic examination. A 3-mm mass (arrow) is demonstrated in the left breast on the (A) mediolateral oblique and the (B) craniocaudal view. It was not recalled by the radiologist who read the mammogram first but was recalled by the radiographer who read the image second. Because the opinions were discordant, the case was recalled for further assessment after arbitration by a third reader. US-guided biopsy demonstrated a 3-mm histologic grade 1 ductal carcinoma.
