Positioning Problem-Solving and the Proper Use of Body Mechanics

Positioning challenges are part of every mammographer’s day, but knowing how to recognize, correct, and prevent them can make all the difference in image quality and efficiency.

Join Ms. Millie Castellanos, R.T.(R)(M)(CRT), for a practical look at common positioning problems encountered during screening and additional mammographic views. Through real-world examples and proven corrective strategies, you’ll gain a better understanding of what causes positioning deficiencies and how to make effective adjustments before they impact the final image.

The course also explores proper body mechanics and the effective use of mammography unit features to help you position more efficiently, reduce physical strain, and consistently produce high-quality images. Walk away with practical techniques you can put into practice immediately, helping you work smarter, strengthen your positioning skills, and support your well-being throughout your career.
