Description

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.

Interventions

  • US-guided breast biopsy (Procedure)
    During this study, women with undergo an US-guided breast biopsy by a radiologist instead of what is typically performed in Nigerian hospitals, which is either a blind biopsy or surgical excision. US-guided breast biopsy is the standard of care in the United States of America because the accuracy is better than blind biopsy and equal to surgical excision.
  • Ultrasound-guided breast biopsy training program (Other)
    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

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Age 18 and older female * Breast ultrasound demonstrating a solid mass that is suspicious for cancer, which would typically undergo either a blind biopsy or surgical excision at the Nigerian hospital where the patient is seeking diagnosis. Exclusion Criteria: * Participants unwilling to sign consent * Participants under the age of 18.
