  • Title: ACOG Committee Opinion. Number 334, May 2006 (replaces No. 186, September 1997): Role of the obstetrician-gynecologist in the screening and diagnosis of breast masses.
    Author: Committee on Gynecologic Practice, ACOG.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 2006 May; 107(5):1213-4. PubMed ID: 16648435.
    Abstract:
    Obstetrician-gynecologists are in a favorable position to diagnose breast disease in their patients. Obstetrician-gynecologists are more likely to encounter a patient with breast cancer than a patient with any gynecologic cancer. The American College of Obstetricians and gynecologists (ACOG) has adopted the goals of assisting in educating obstetrician-gynecologists in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer and in reducing mortality from breast cancer. To help meet these goals, ACOG has developed recommendations for the early diagnosis of breast disease.
