Clinical breast assessment entails a comprehensive and multi-tiered approach for both breast cancer screening and diagnosis. CBA involves clinical exam/evaluation, imaging and follow up recommendations. This can vary in high risk and underserved populations. The multidisciplinary team of experts participating in this post conference will present updates in screening and diagnostic mammogram guidelines, risk assessment, the role of breast health awareness and clinical breast exam.
