I have over five years of experience operating and maintaining mammography equipment, including digital and 3D mammography systems. I am proficient in performing routine quality control tests, troubleshooting technical issues, and ensuring compliance with safety standards. My expertise also includes staying updated on advancements in mammography technology to provide accurate and efficient imaging services.

I prioritize clear communication, explaining the procedure step-by-step to alleviate concerns. I maintain a calm and empathetic demeanor, ensuring patients feel respected and supported. Adjusting positioning for comfort and using techniques to minimize discomfort during compression are also key. Building trust and fostering a positive experience are essential for patient compliance and satisfaction.

For dense breast tissue, I utilize advanced imaging techniques like 3D mammography to improve diagnostic accuracy. In cases of difficult positioning, I employ creative approaches, such as adjusting angles or using additional padding, to achieve optimal images. Collaboration with radiologists and technologists ensures comprehensive care and accurate results for every patient.

I adhere strictly to protocols set by organizations like the FDA, ACR, and MQSA. This includes performing regular equipment calibrations, documenting quality control tests, and ensuring proper patient records. I also participate in continuing education to stay informed about regulatory updates and implement best practices to maintain accreditation.

I use effective time management strategies, such as organizing schedules to accommodate urgent cases and routine screenings. Clear communication with the team ensures smooth coordination, and I prioritize tasks based on patient needs and departmental goals. Staying organized and adaptable allows me to maintain efficiency without compromising quality.
