Ask the Doc: Yeo Yang Shin, MD

Posted on 8/27/2024

I’m a radiologist. Radiologists are medical doctors who specialize in diagnosing diseases using medical imaging.

Yeo Yang Shin, MD, Diagnostic Radiologist, Naugatuck Valley Radiology

My subspecialty is in breast imaging/imaging studies related to breast cancer – mammograms, ultrasounds, breast MRIs, as well as procedures that are image guided.

Over the past 16 years, my main contribution to the multidisciplinary conference is consulting with the breast surgeons and the radiation and medical oncologists. I also help with surgical planning and reviewing metastatic workups. In the conferences we have a comprehensive discussion about each case and come to a consensus about the best treatment moving forward.

Patients can be comforted knowing that they have an entire medical team working on their behalf.
