EDUCATION

A primary purpose of the Society of Breast Imaging is education for both members in training and practicing radiologists.  To meet that purpose, the society presents a biennial postgraduate course where the Fellows of the society present the latest information in clinical breast imaging, practice issues and cutting edge technology.  The 2009 SBI 9th Postgraduate course was the largest dedicated breast imaging conference in the world.  More than 600 breast imaging professionals and more than 300 industry representatives met in Colorado Springs, Colorado to learn from more than 70 internationally recognized faculty.

POLICY ON SCIENTIFIC METHOD

A principal goal of the Society of Breast Imaging is to foster the use of the scientific method in breast imaging.  Often when there is no “science” to bring to bear on a particular subject, the experience of the individual must be relied upon for guidance.  When writing or lecturing, the audience should be informed as to the basis of the guidance.

To this end, it is recommended that authors providing advice to others in speeches, lectures, or written materials through the Society of Breast Imaging, indicate whether such advice is based on a scientific analysis, or the individual’s own anecdotal experience.  Scientifically derived results are encouraged although individual experience is still very valuable.
