Whether for augmentation or reconstruction after breast cancer surgery, the mammographer will undoubtedly encounter women in her daily practice who present for mammography and have breast implants. Women with breast implants require additional screening views and encounter various types of complications unique to their implants. This course provides an overview of the regulatory history and types of breast implants approved for use in the United States, surgical procedures used for implantation, and common complications and adverse effects related to breast implants as well quality control principles, another important aspect of breast imaging and a critical step in ensuring quality images and patient care.
