Breast Imaging (Mt. Zion)

Bonnie N. Joe, M.D., Ph.D., Section Chief

The Breast Imaging Section is responsible for all breast-related imaging examinations, including mammography, ultrasonography, MRI, and interventional procedures (including lesion localizations, stereotactic- and ultrasound-guided core biopsy and fine-needle aspiration biopsy, cyst aspiration, ductography, etc.). We now do approximately 15,000 examinations per year, with a steadily increasing caseload. Fellow appointees will share in performing all our clinical activities, under the supervision of three full-time breast imaging faculty. There is one weekly radiology-pathology correlation conference and one weekly multidisciplinary breast tumor board conference, both of which are attended by fellows and full-time faculty. For those fellows interested in an academic radiology career, research time will be allotted for giving teaching conferences and participating in a variety of ongoing (or self-developed) clinical research projects.
