About Mammography Jobs
Mammography is a system that produces breasts images using a low-dose x-ray system. Viewing of the images can be done in various formats such as film at a view box or on a digital mammography work station. Mammography plays an important role in early detection of breast cancers because it can show changes in breasts up to two years before it can be felt.
Current guidelines recommend mammography screening every year for women, beginning at age 40. However women who have had breast cancer and those who are at increased risk of breast cancer should seek expert medical advice when they should begin mammograms and about the frequency of screening.

Mammographer Needed
A group of 8 full-time and 3 part-time radiologists are looking to add a newly fellowship trained Breast Imager/Mammographer to grow the breast imaging side of the group. The group covers 1 main hospital (250+ beds) and 4 smaller hospitals via PACS. They also have a joint venture imaging center with the hospital, that the ideal candidate would primarily be based out of. They have great relations with the hospital administrations. They are fully digital and have GE workstations throughout. They are currently doing screening mammo, diagnostic mammo, US, US biopsies, breast gamma and would like to expand into stereotactic biopsies, breast MR, etc... They have been approved for the breast MR CAD and ideal candidate would be involved with picking equipment. The radiology group has the opportunity to be on the forefront of the clinical development involving breast cancer. They are very open to the type position (employee vs. partnership) and are open to negotiations for the right candidate. For example, they have a partnership position with a call involved that would be 1:8 on the weekdays and 1:4 on the weekends doing about 60-70% breast imaging OR they would consider doing a partnership with 100% breast imaging, no call with less vacation. Initial salary starts in the low-mid $300K's and upwards to $400K's, with partnership no longer than 2 years, all depending on experience. Partner's earning are in excess of $550K. Benefits include: malpractice, health insurance, disability insurance, 401K, CME stipend, negotiable relo package, etc...
