BrighamRAD and MedShare Breast Imaging Teaching Cases


BrighamRAD is maintained by the Department of Radiology, Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School. All BrighamRAD teaching cases have undergone extensive review by attending physicians, department editors, and the department Chairman. MedShare is a consortium of institutions that have agreed to provide shared access to their online radiology teaching cases.
