TEACHING POINTS

The aim of this pictorial review is to provide an overview of digital breast tomosynthesis in the screening population. 1. The learner should be able identify and confidently diagnosis benign pathology on screening breast tomosynthesis without need for additional imaging. 2. The learner should be able to recognize suspicious and malignant features on screening breast tomosynthesis and how to tailor a more focal diagnostic workup based on tomosynthesis findings (e.g., additional mammographic imaging versus breast ultrasound). 3. A brief overview of implementation of digital breast tomosynthesis in the screening setting will be presented.
