Description:
Praise for the previous edition: "Well organised
and beautifully illustrated...A good book for trainee breast
radiologists and radiographers...[and] an extremely useful reference
textbook for more experienced practitioners."--RAD Magazine
The
second edition of this generously illustrated case-based reference
provides a systematic visual collection of pathologic entities and a
detailed assessment of how to optimize sonographic technique as well as
how to approach the integration of mammography, sonography, MRI and
PET/CT in breast cancer diagnosis. The book begins with a focus on
teaching practical methods to analyze and incorporate mammographic,
sonographic, and magnetic resonance findings in the clinical setting.
The closing chapters are devoted to illustrating the applications of
PET as demonstrated by specific clinical cases.
Features of the second edition:
Emphasis on the importance of high-resolution sonography
Three new chapters on the use of MRI and PET in breast imaging
Numerous
new case studies -- including helpful pearls and pitfalls -- that focus
on common and uncommon examples of metastatic and non-metastatic disease
Charts and outlines that provide rapid reference for the clinical workup of a lesion
More than 800 images that help identify both mammographic and sonographic abnormalities
This
thorough reference is ideal for radiologists, mammographers,
oncologists, gynecologists and all clinicians looking to broaden their
visual sonographic experience. Its user-friendly format makes it a
handy text for radiology residents in breast rotations.
