4 THE CANADIAN SOCIETY OF BREAST IMAGING ABOUT The idea of forming a group dedicated to breast imaging in Canada has been going on for some time. Professionals interested in breast imaging have been engaged in the European Society of Breast Imaging as well as the Society of Breast Imaging in the United States. Recognizing that there was a need for a place to discuss uniquely Canadian issues related to breast imaging, the CSBI was founded in October 2017 with the support of the CAR. Founding members include senior leading breast imagers from across the country including: Drs. Jean Seely (ON), Nancy Wadden (NL), Shiela Appavoo (AB), Anabel Scaranelo (ON), Yves Loisel (QC) and Paula Gordon (BC). The CSBI is a home for Canadian breast imaging professionals and patients to discuss best practices, pressures on the system and to celebrate successes. The CSBI will also be a focused vehicle to bring breast imaging stories from Canada to the rest of the world and vice versa. PURPOSE To establish a society for the improvement and dissemination of breast imaging To promote high quality breast imaging that is patient centered To improve the quality of medical education in the practice of breast imaging To foster research in all aspects of breast imaging To provide a medium for the exchange of ideas among clinicians, researchers and healthcare professionals involved with breast imaging To provide meetings for presentation and discussion of papers and the dissemination of knowledge in the area of breast imaging To establish a channel for publication of scientific reports in the field of breast imaging; and To respond to public / media inquiries concerning breast imaging.

Increased breast density lowers the sensitivity of mammography for the detection of breast cancer and is also associated with an increased risk of breast cancer. Controversy exists regarding whether or not increased breast density alone (without other risk factors) warrants supplemental screening with ultrasound and/or MRI. LEARNING OBJECTIVES At the end of this session, the participant will be able to: 1. Describe how breast density is assessed 2. Summarize the evidence that supports increased breast density as a risk factor for breast cancer 3. Assess the imaging modalities that can be used to screen patients with dense breasts April 25, 2018 Page 16
