Tablet-based Mobile Health Ultrasound for Point-of-care Breast Cancer Diagnosis in Nigeria

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Other, Procedure
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

The purpose of this study is to train Nigerian radiologists to perform ultrasound-guided breast biopsies on women that present to the hospital with a suspicious breast mass. Before performing biopsies on patients, the Nigerian radiologists will have already successfully completed a competency-based mobile health ultrasound-guided breast biopsy-training program. This program, developed by experts in Nigeria and the United States of America, certifies that they have the skills required to safely perform these biopsies on patients.
