Breast Imaging Fellowship

Our fellows train at a dedicated women’s imaging center alongside fellowship-trained, board certified radiologists.

The Breast Imaging Fellowship Program at Baylor University Medical Center, part of Baylor Scott & White Health, is a one-year fellowship at the Darlene G. Cass Women’s Imaging Center in Dallas, Texas. The program offers comprehensive training in all aspects of advanced breast imaging with a clinically and academically active faculty across multiple disciplines.

The goal of our program is to train the next generation of breast imagers with a solid foundation in scholarship, innovative research and clinical practice.

Curriculum

The Breast Imaging Fellowship Program at Baylor Dallas follows the ACR/Society of Breast Imaging Resident and Fellow Training Curriculum for Breast Imaging.

Training and experience will be provided in all aspects of diagnostic breast imaging, including:

  • Digital mammography
  • Tomosynthesis
  • Breast Ultrasound
  • Breast MRI


Breast interventional training includes:

  • Image-guided core needle biopsy using sonographic, mammographic, MR and Tomosynthesis-guided procedures.
  • Image-guided breast cyst/abscess drainage and aspiration
  • Pre-operative needle localizations using all imaging modalities, including MR and tomosynthesis
  • Galactography

Fellows are trained in the performance of:

  • Breast physical examination
  • 2D and 3D screening and diagnostic
  • Breast sonography
  • Wire localization
  • Cyst aspiration
  • Image-guided needle biopsy of solid lesions
  • Galactography and magnetic resonance imaging
  • Quality control procedures

The Breast Imaging Fellowship is coordinated with the Diagnostic Radiology Residency Program so that the experience of residents and fellows is optimized for both groups. Fellows have a gradual increase in responsibilities and also participate in resident teaching through the development of the breast imaging teaching files and resident conferences.

Fellows attend a monthly resident breast imaging noon conference and a biweekly breast cancer conference. Under faculty guidance, fellows have primary responsibility for obtaining images, transferring images into electronic format and presenting images at the multidisciplinary breast conference.

Fellows also prepare and present at least two resident noon conferences during the fellowship as well as arrange pathology case reviews with pathology.

Involvement in a clinical research project is required with the goal that it may lead to publication of a paper in a peer-reviewed article or national presentation. All research projects will performed under faculty guidance and with faculty involvement.

Current faculty interests and active projects include:

  • Diffusion-Weighted Breast MR
  • Contrast-Enhanced Mammography
  • Whole-Breast Ultrasound
  • Risk-Based Screening

  • Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

    Baylor University Medical Center, Graduate Medical Education (GME) is committed to advancing and passionately promoting a training environment where all feel welcomed and valued.
    A culture of inclusion encourages innovation, and is a catalyst for building dynamic teams that serve our communities.
