Product Description:
New Breast Imaging Reporting & Database System (BIRADS) assessment codes may be created soon to encompass postoperative and male breast surgeries. There have been problems, according to a report from the FDA's Charles Finder, MD, with BIRADS assessments 0 and 3, especially when radiologists spot multiple findings.
One of the issues the new codes hope to fix: How should you categorize a study when you are waiting for old compression films? The American College of Radiology (ACR) is looking into this, Finder reported at a recent FDA advisory meeting in Gaithersburg, MD.
