Online registration is now open for the town hall, Aug. 8, 4–6pm ET.

The panel will discuss new Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA) requirements that take effect Sept. 10, to modernize the act and improve enforcement of quality standards. Attendees will have an opportunity to engage with the panel during a Q&A session.
