American College of Radiology/Society of Breast Imaging Curriculum for Resident and Fellow Education in Breast Imaging††The authors are members of the ACR Commission on Breast Cancer Education Committee (EAS, LEP, BTP, DLM, NML, DMI, MH, DF, RAC, ESB, LWB, JDA), Edward A. Sickles, MD, chair, and the Society of Breast Imaging Executive Committee (BM, CHL, PE, DDD, RJB), R. James Brenner, MD, JD, president.

The ACR and the Society of Breast Imaging have revised the curriculum for resident and fellow education in breast imaging on the basis of substantial changes in breast imaging practice since the initial curriculum was published in 2000. This curriculum provides guidance to academic chairs, residency program directors, and academic section chiefs in assessing and improving their residency and fellowship training programs and indicates to residents and breast imaging fellows the topics they need to learn and the experience they should try to acquire during their training. Radiologists already in practice also may find the curriculum useful in outlining the material they need to know to remain up to date in the practice of breast imaging.
